N2 - 5G mobile networks will have to deal simultaneously with three types of traffic: mobile broadband communications, critical communications and Internet of Things (IoT). In this paper, we propose a novel hybrid 5G Fiber-Wireless (FiWi) access architecture equipped with Mobile Edge Computing-enabled (MEC) macro base stations and investigate its performance. Given the proposed architecture, we aim to solve the user association problem under differentiated Quality of Service (QoS). Indeed, we aim at maximizing the number of the users that are served by the network within their latency constraints, having IoT and haptic applications' requirements in mind. Our approach to solve the user association problem is based on Genetic Algorithms (GA).
