DeepCare: Deep Learning-Based Smart Healthcare Framework using 5G Assisted Network Slicing

5G and beyond communication networks require satisfying very low latency standards, high reliability, high-speed user connectivity, more security, improved capacity and better service demands. Augmenting such a wide range of KPIs (Key Performance Indicators) needs a smart, intelligent and programmable solution for TSPs (Telecommunication Service Providers). Resource availability and quality sustainability are challenging parameters in a heterogeneous 5G environment. Programmable Dynamic Network Slicing (PDNS) is a key technology enabling parameter that can allow multiple tenants to bring their versatile applications simultaneously over shared physical infrastructure. Latest emerging technologies like virtualized Software-Defined Networks (vSDN) and Artificial Intelligence (AI) play a pivotal supporting role in solving the above-mentioned constraints. Using the PDNS framework, we have proposed a novel slice backup algorithm leveraging Deep Learning (DL) neural network to orchestrate network latency and load efficiently. Our model has been trained using the available KPIs and incoming traffic is analyzed. The proposed solution performs stable load balancing between shared slices even if certain extreme conditions (slice unavailability) through intelligent resource allocation. The framework withstands service outage and always select the most suitable slice as a backup. Our results show latency-aware resource distribution for better network stability.
