Cell Selection Analysis in 5G for the Emergency Communications

Abstract

The fifth-generation (5G) cellular network is extremely crucial nowadays. One of the 5G's potential applications is emergency communications. 5G wireless networks can endure overlapped cell locations and provide dynamic coverage in terms of time. As a result, multiple 5G cells can protect devices in a 5G network. As a result, equipment used in emergency communications require a dependable cell selection in 5G. For users on the 5G network's overlapping cells, this is a perilous move. Several experiments were carried out to establish the best 5G cell selection based only on signal strength. Based on the analysis of two schemes, a solution is presented in this paper. The first method is dependent on the distance between base stations. Furthermore, the second method considers the number of devices in a cell as well as the distance between them. The execution of these two approaches was examined using performance measurements such as the fairness index and the blocking likelihood. Following a thorough examination of the data, it was concluded that scheme 2 is preferable to scheme 1 for the selection of 5G cells.
