ABSTRACT
Accurate traffic prediction poses great difficulties because of the continuously increasing scale and diversity of 5G network traffic, which is driven by user demands. Moreover, certain characteristics of 5G traffic are constantly changing; thus, simulations using traditional models often lead to incorrect estimations or inefficient utilization of available resources. Consequently, we propose a hybrid machine learning model that integrates support vector machine (SVM) and decision tree algorithms to enhance efficiency of 5G traffic prediction. The structure of the hybrid model dynamically adjusts by adding or removing hidden layers and units within the network to improve prediction performance. The efficacy of the proposed model is evaluated using metrics like mean squared error, mean absolute error, and root mean squared error (RMSE). Findings show that the hybrid model consistently achieves lower error rates than SVM alone. Further performance enhancement of the hybrid model in predicting 5G traffic is also supported by comparisons of R-squared values against signal-to-noise ratios. These outcomes show the potential of the proposed method to improve traffic prediction accuracy in 5G networks, serving as a powerful tool for network control.
