    The ever increasing number of connected devices and of new and heterogeneous mobile use cases implies that 5G cellular systems will face demanding technical challenges. For example, Ultra-Reliable Low-Latency Communication (URLLC) and enhanced Mobile Broadband (eMBB) scenarios present orthogonal Quality of Service (QoS) requirements that 5G aims to satisfy with a unified Radio Access Network (RAN) design. Network slicing and mmWave communications have been identified as possible enablers for 5G. They provide, respectively, the necessary scalability and flexibility to adapt the network to each specific use case environment, and low latency and multi-gigabit-per-second wireless links, which tap into a vast, currently unused portion of the spectrum. The optimization and integration of these technologies is still an open research challenge, which requires innovations at different layers of the protocol stack. This paper proposes to combine them in a RAN slicing framework for mmWaves, based on carrier aggregation. Notably, we introduce MilliSlice, a cross-carrier scheduling policy that exploits the diversity of the carriers and maximizes their utilization, thus simultaneously guaranteeing high throughput for the eMBB slices and low latency and high reliability for the URLLC flows.Comment: 8 pages, 8 figures.

    D2D stands for device-to-device communication, which is likely to perform a major impact in future mobile communications because it offers ultra-low latency for end user’s direct conversation. Throughout minimizing latency, increasing strength and improved transmission efficiency, and expanding telecommunication services, D2D services are seen as a successful innovation for emerging mobile communications. The D2D networking makes a unique contribution to the wireless world by simplifying data transfer among devices connected. D2D networking makes use of adjacent two nodes to maximize the use of existing infrastructure, low latency, boost throughput and expand service functionality. Within wireless networks, D2D communication is described as immediate interaction among two mobile devices without passing through the access point or network infrastructure. The fully integrated wireless communication would be built by integrating D2D and the Internet of Things. D2D enables the larger number of devices to be paired at a higher bandwidth frequency and with minimum latency. Building a new reliable framework for D2D communication of smart devices can be an important framework for improving the reliability of communication. Internet of Things is the process of communicating and sharing information between nearby devices. But there are many challenges to secure and reliable communication. Amongst the major concerns for wireless transmission has been identified as communication trust, and overcoming this issue could lead to sustained expansion in the usage and popularity of the Internet of Things. The proposed study develops a system for providing internet access to a network of smart devices connected to the internet of things. The significant contributions link the latest findings that incorporate the interaction framework's stability and provides secure internet networking for connected devices
