The outright aim of Beyond Fifth Generation (B5G) communication is to bring a revolution in Quality of Service (QoS) through enhanced Mobile Broadband (eMBB), Ultra-Reliable Low Latency Communication (URLLC), and massive Machine Type Communication (mMTC). Thereby, due to this massive expansion in the communication paradigm, interference is bound to surface unexpected challenges in the wireless domain. Thus, interference mitigation is a foundational aim in the research paraphernalia of B5G communication. Presently, Software Defined Networking (SDN) is emerging to empower wireless communication with centralized routing-based interference mitigation. With this premise, we aim to present a focused review on SDN-based interference mitigation in wireless communication. Initially, we discuss current research horizon in the subject domain and briefly explore literature for routing-based interference mitigation. Thereby, we analyze the potential of SDN through evaluation of existing solutions for interference mitigation in B5G communication. We conclude our survey by highlighting prominent future research directions in SDN-based interference mitigation.
