A Review Study on “5G NR Slicing Enhancing IoT & Smart Grid Communication”

This paper presents a brief study over the concept of network slicing on the 5G wireless communication for enhancing IoT for renewable energy. As a new emerging technology, the network slicing has large opportunities, variety applications with certain challenges. The terminology network slicing refers to the basic capability of 5G networks which enable an efficient implementation and operation on virtual level over a shared physical network structure. The network slices can be adapted in a way that can fulfill the need of regular as well as specialized functions like mobile broadband, automobiles, smart cities, smart grid, high-tech manufacturing, utilities. There are many challenges network slicing mainly in the Core Network, Radio Access Network (RAN) relating resource allocation, SLA monitoring and many more. There are also some proposed solutions addressing those issues. This review paper gathered a brief knowledge about the matters.
