Abstract
The dependency on small cells, the cost of establishing a 5G infrastructure, and traffic at the Base Transceiver Station (BTS) can be reduced by distributing ideal data over an active WiFi connection in nearby mobile devices. Besides, unloading and distributing the unused data over WiFi to nearby devices will not affect the speed of 5G. Therefore, without compromising on the promised speed by the 5G cellular network, a massive sum of ideal 5G data can be distributed via a WiFi connection to other nearby handsets connected to the given 5G cellular network. Recent studies have suggested a "delayed offloading" methodology to offload ideal 5G data to a nearby environment with an active WiFi connection. In the present study, we propose a device-to-device (D2D) method for rerouting ideal 5G cellular data from an inactive WiFi using the "delayed offloading" principle to a neighboring headset with an active WiFi connection provided by the given 5G cellular network. However, if there is not a single handset found in an active WiFi environment, the offloaded 5G data will be sent to BTS in a conventional manner.
