Survey on health care applications in 5G networks

Abstract

In 2019, 5G was introduced and it is being gradually deployed all over the world. 5G introduces new concepts, such as network slicing to better support various applications with different performance requirements on data rate and latency; and edge and cloud computing that will be responsible for the leverage of computational requirements. This study aims to describe the functions and features of the key 5G technologies and conduct a survey on the latest development of driving technologies for 5G. This survey focuses on health care applications that would benefit from the advantages brought by 5G.
