Network Slicing for 5G and Beyond Networks

Abstract

Traditionally in cellular networks radio resources were only considered as a performance bottleneck. Therefore, a number of solutions were devised to only cater the radio resource allocation challenge. A similar trend has been followed for deriving solutions for network slicing as well in which only radio resources were sliced. However, the proliferation of end users and novel applications have also imposed limitations on other network resources such as backhaul and cache spaces. In this chapter, we would discuss two novel solutions which consider these resources along with the radio resources to build networking slices.
