A 5G-based smart pole is an IoT-based streetlight pole that consists of streetlights as its hardware, IoT devices with different functions, and an intelligent network interface with 5G communications protocol. This device can directly link to the Internet independently without a computer and has a built-in gateway and a sensor server to access the digital information from IoT devices, and also to control and to set up them. Digital output of the 5G-based smart pole enables the hardware pole to easily integrate multi-application, including digital illumination, digital monitoring system, push notifications, emergency reporting, and long-distance environmental monitoring. A 5G-based smart pole is usually stationed by the street in the LAN environment to perform the said applications. The 5G-based pole collects IoT data dynamically and provides various services. However, without a suitable scheduling algorithm, accessing various built-in services from a 5G pole will be a difficult job. For an administrator/user of remote access services, to have a full concept of the services and available time is impossible, especially the random access of the 5G pole network will complicate these procedures more. The main objective of this article is to develop an optimized QoS (Quality of Service) / QoE (Quality of Experience) management system that suits the 5G-based smart pole environment in order to utilize the restricted bandwidth more effectively. The QoS/QoE optimized rules that this article intends to develop can actively choose the best QoS resources of 5G communication based on current network status and aim at providing various services to transmit signals among 5G smart electric pole devices and 5G gNB/5GC to satisfy the needs in different scenarios.
