description | ABSTRACT Network slicing, a key technology introduced in 5G standards, enables mobile networks to simultaneously support a wide range of heterogeneous use cases with diverse quality of service (QoS) requirements. This work discusses the potential benefits of network slicing for the automotive sector, encompassing manufacturing processes and vehicular communications. The review of the state of the art reveals a clear gap regarding the application of network slicing from the perspective of industrial verticals such as automotive use cases and their specific requirements. Departing from this observation, we first identify limitations of previous cellular technologies and open challenges for supporting the data services required. Then we describe network slicing as an enabler to face these challenges. We present an analysis of the cost equilibrium for network slicing to be effective for car manufacturers, and tests in real 5G networks that demonstrate the performance improvement in OTA updates coexisting with other services. |
