Fifth-Generation (5G) networks deal with dynamic fluctuations in user traffic and the demands of each connected user and application. This creates a need for optimized resource allocation to reduce network congestion in densely populated urban centers and further ensure Quality of Service (QoS) in (5G) environments. To address this issue, we present a framework for both predicting user traffic and allocating users to base stations in 5G networks using neural network architectures. This framework consists of a hybrid approach utilizing a Long Short-Term Memory (LSTM) network or a Transformer architecture for user traffic prediction in base stations, as well as a Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) to allocate users to base stations in a realistic scenario. The models show high accuracy in the tasks performed, especially in the user traffic prediction task, where the models show an accuracy of over 99%. Overall, our framework is capable of capturing long-term temporal features and spatial features from 5G user data, taking a significant step towards a holistic approach in data-driven resource allocation and traffic prediction in 5G networks.
