Who This Book Is For Engineers of mobile device and infrastructure manufacturing industries, development engineers of semiconductor manufacturing industries, and engineers with a general interest in the field. Mobile network operators, along with students and business professionals in the telecommunications domain will also find the topic of interest.

Gain a Deep, Practical Understanding of 5G Technology, Applications, Architecture, Standards, and Ecosystem The 5G ultra-high-speed wireless communication standard is a major technological leap forward-substantially increasing speed and capacity, enhancing current use cases, and making many new applications practical. For technical professionals, managers, and students, 5G requires significant new knowledge and expertise. In 5G Wireless: A Comprehensive Introduction , renowned information technology author William Stallings presents a comprehensive and unified explanation of 5G's key applications, technologies, and standards. Like Stallings' other award-winning texts, this guide will help you quickly find the information and gain the mastery to succeed with critical new technology. Stallings first explains how cellular networks have evolved through 4G and now 5G, and surveys 5G's application areas and use cases. Next, he thoroughly introduces the 5G core network, covering SDN, NFV, network slicing, QoS, and edge computing-and provides a detailed coverage of the 5G air interface and radio access network. Throughout, key concepts are illuminated through realistic examples, review questions help you test your understanding, and references support further exploration. Understand the 5G ecosystem, its building blocks, standards, and R&D roadmaps Explore the Enhanced Mobile Broadband (eMBB) use case, where 5G enhances 4G in applications such as smart offices and dense urban communications Learn how Massive Machine Type Communications (mMTC) and Ultra-Reliable and Low-Latency Communications (URLCC) support new applications such as fog, IoT, and cloud Discover how 5G NextGen core (backbone) networks serve and interconnect wireless access networks that connect user devices Master key 5G NR Air Interface and Radio Access Network (RAN) concepts, including millimeter-wave transmission, MIMO antennas, and OFDM multiplexing.

Provides a comprehensive treatment of the evolution of wireless communications to help practitioners keep pace with the developments in their field.

In response to a request from the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency, the committee studied a range of issues to help identify what strategies the Department of Defense might follow to meet its need for flexible, rapidly deployable communications systems. Taking into account the military's particular requirements for security, interoperability, and other capabilities as well as the extent to which commercial technology development can be expected to support these and related needs, the book recommends systems and component research as well as organizational changes to help the DOD field state-of-the-art, cost-effective untethered communications systems. In addition to advising DARPA on where its investment in information technology for mobile wireless communications systems can have the greatest impact, the book explores the evolution of wireless technology, the often fruitful synergy between commercial and military research and development efforts, and the technical challenges still to be overcome in making the dream of "anytime, anywhere" communications a reality.
