Abstract

The day-to-day advancements have brought the biggest challenge to network providers as it has become difficult to keep up the traditional networks with the ever-advancing technologies for them. It also result as a motivation for vendors to grow by developing, innovating, deploying, and migrating in their services, upgrading to new hardware and infrastructure, as well as hiring newly trained people, which requires a large amount of money and time to implement. It results to a need of a new network architecture who has a capability of supporting future technologies along with solving all sorts of issues known as the network proposal by software. For meeting highly increasing demands, various proposals of load balancing techniques come forward in which highly dedicated balancers of loads are being required for ever service in some of them, or for every new service, manual recognition of device is required. In the conventional network, on the basis of the local information in the network, load balancing is being established.

Introduction

Since ancient times, communication is the most basic needs of everyone’s life to communicate between two people. It in early start was started from talk only. It’s very important to have a proper understandable communication for creating appropriate relations and solve our issues effectively. This communication hasn’t seen much development for a very long time until 1950-1960s. As in 1950-1960s, the major evolution comes through the development of telephones and mobile known for first generation of communication (1G) for long distance interactions.

From that day, the evolutionary growth in communication never seen back. This growth has come to present in which we are using 4G, i.e., Fourth generation of communication. Which shows us the path to the Fourth generation of industrial revolution in the market and have given us the ray of light towards new boundaries to achieve. But still 4G is not capable to support the targets that have been shown by it to us (Kumar et al., 2015b).

Due to which, our present generation is moving forward to 5G technologies, i.e. also called as fifth generation of communication. Which have the capabilities to achieve the targets of which fourth generation of communication needs for working and grow.

5G Communication

5G is the fifth generation of wireless communications technologies supporting cellular data networks. Large scale adoption began in 2019 and today virtually every telecommunication service provider in the developed world is upgrading its infrastructure to offer 5G functionality. 5G communication requires the use of communications devices (mostly mobile phones) designed to support the technology. The 5G frequency bandwidth is being divided into three bands:

  • 1.

    Millimeter waves - the fastest 5G band

  • 2.

    Mid band

  • 3.

    Low band – the slowest 5G band

Low-band uses a similar frequency range as the predecessor, 4G. 5G millimeter wave is the fastest, with actual speeds often being 1–2 Gbit/s down. Frequencies are above 24 GHz reaching up to 72 GHz which is above the extremely high frequency band's lower boundary. The reach is short, so more cells are required. Millimeter waves have difficulty traversing many walls and windows, so indoor coverage is limited. All the 5G wireless devices in a cell communicate by radio waves with a local antenna arrayand low power automated transceiver (transmitter and receiver) in the cell, over frequency channels assigned by the transceiver from a pool of frequencies that are reused in other cells.

All the 5G wireless devices in a cell communicate by radio waves with a local antenna array and low power automated transceiver (transmitter and receiver) in the cell, over frequency channels assigned by the transceiver from a pool of frequencies that are reused in other cells. The local antennas are connected with the telephone network and the Internet by a high bandwidth optical fiber or wireless backhaul connection. As in other cell networks, a mobile device crossing from one cell to another is automatically “handed off” seamlessly to the new cell. Which make it a highly reliable network communication system along with interconnected devices with high speed frequency bandwidths.(Kumar et al., 2015c)
