Background The field of robotic surgery has seen significant advancements in the past few years and it has been adopted in many large hospitals in the United States and worldwide as a standard for various procedures in recent years. However, the location of many hospitals in urban areas and a lack of surgical expertise in the rural areas could lead to increased travel time and treatment delays for patients in need of robotic surgical management, including cancer patients. The fifth generation (5G) networks have been deployed by various telecom companies in multiple countries worldwide. Our aim is to update the readers about the novel technology and the current scenario of surgical procedures performed using 5G technology. In this article, we also discuss how the technology could aid cancer patients requiring surgical management, the future perspectives, the potential challenges, and the limitations, which would need to overcome prior to widespread real‐life use of the technology for cancer care. Recent findings The expansion of 5G technology has enabled some countries to conduct remote surgical procedures, tele‐mentored and real‐time interactive procedures on animal models, cadavers, and humans, demonstrating that 5G networks could offer a potential solution to previously experienced latency and reliability hurdles during the remote surgeries performed in the 2000s. Conclusion New technological advancements could serve as a ground for emerging novel therapeutic applications. While limitations and challenges related to the 5G infrastructure, cost, compatibility, and security exist; researching to overcome the limitations and comprehend the potential benefits of integrating the technology into practice would be imminent before widespread clinical use. Remote and tele‐mentored 5G‐powered procedures could offer a new tool in improving the care of patients requiring robotic surgical management such as prostate cancer patients.

“…Unlike in intra-RAT HO where the cell with the highest received signal is selected, in inter-RAT HO, other factors such as user mobility, service type, as well as the network property and state are considered when selecting the target cell. It also involves the switching of the logical interface between the two RATs [89]. The latency incurred during inter-RAT HO is still prohibitive for many application and services, thus, it poses a severe problem in the NexGen mobile systems [89].…”

Handover (HO) is one of the key aspects of next-generation (NG) cellular communication networks that need to be properly managed since it poses multiple threats to quality-of-service (QoS) such as the reduction in the average throughput as well as service interruptions. With the introduction of new enablers for fifth-generation (5G) networks, such as millimetre wave (mm-wave) communications, network densification, Internet of things (IoT), etc., HO management is provisioned to be more challenging as the number of base stations (BSs) per unit area, and the number of connections has been dramatically rising. Considering the stringent requirements that have been newly released in the standards of 5G networks, the level of the challenge is multiplied. To this end, intelligent HO management schemes have been proposed and tested in the literature, paving the way for tackling these challenges more efficiently and effectively. In this survey, we aim at revealing the current status of cellular networks and discussing mobility and HO management in 5G alongside the general characteristics of 5G networks. We provide an extensive tutorial on HO management in 5G networks accompanied by a discussion on machine learning (ML) applications to HO management. A novel taxonomy in terms of the source of data to be utilized in training ML algorithms is produced, where two broad categories are considered; namely, visual data and network data. The stateof-the-art on ML-aided HO management in cellular networks under each category is extensively reviewed with the most recent studies, and the challenges, as well as future research directions, are detailed. INDEX TERMS Handover, machine learning, mobility management, fifth generation.

5G is a new generation mobile network that enables innovation and supports progressive change across all vertical industries and across our society. 5G usage scenarios face new security risks due to the technology used and the characteristics of the specific application scenario. The security risks have become a key factor affecting the development of 5G convergence services. First we summarize the technical characteristics and typical usage scenarios of 5G. Then, we analyze the security and privacy risks faced by 5G applications, and give the system reference architecture and overall security and privacy solutions for 5G applications. Based on the three major applications scenarios of eMBB, uRLLC, and mMTC, we also provide specific suggestions for coping with security and privacy risks.
