Beyond 5G Enabling Intent-Based Network Innovation
Кrzysztof Przystupa, Mykola Beshley · 2025
This chapter proposes improved methods for structuring the 5G radio access layer and introduces advanced techniques for planning and optimizing time-frequency resource allocation. A key focus is the development of an intent-based approach for dynamic downlink and uplink resource distribution in heterogeneous 5G/Narrowband Internet of Things (NB-IoT) networks, incorporating user-defined quality of service (QoS) expectations and traffic prioritization. Simulation results demonstrate a 68.37% reduction in average end-to-end delay and significant reductions in service denial for high-priority IoT traffic. The chapter also presents a quality of experience (QoE)-oriented radio resource management (RRM) method based on user intent localization, Voronoi-based cell planning, and energy-efficient base station (BS) operation. A novel scheduling strategy using a composite QoS index increases throughput and reduces energy consumption by up to 41.8%. A method of spectrum allocation for 5G-U and Wi-Fi is proposed, which optimizes the QoS in unlicensed bands based on user intent and price differentiation.
