Admission and Congestion Control for 5G Network Slicing

Abstract: Network Slicing has been widely accepted as essential feature of future 5th Generation (5G) mobile communication networks. Accounting the potentially dense demand of network slices as a cloud service and the limited resource of mobile network operators (MNOs), an efficient inter-slice management and orchestration plays a key role in 5G networks. This calls advanced solutions for slice admission and congestion control. This paper proposes a novel approach of inter-slice control that well copes with existing pre-standardized 5G architectures
