5G NR: Architecture, Technology, Implementation, and Operation of 3GPP New Radio Standards

5G: Architecture, Technology, Implementation, and Operation of 3GPP New Radio Standards is an in-depth, systematic and structured technical reference on 3GPP's New Radio standards (Release 15 and beyond), covering underlying theory, technology and implementation of the new 5G radio interface. The book describes the operation of individual components and shows how they fit into the overall system and operate from a systems perspective. Uniquely, this book gives detailed information on upper RAN protocol layers, network architecture and services, implementation and deployment issues, and applications, making it suitable for engineers who are developing 5G products and services. Reflecting on the author's 30-plus years of experience in signal processing and wireless communication system design, this book is ideal for professional engineers, researchers and graduate students working and researching in cellular communication systems, radio air-interface technologies, cellular communications protocols, advanced radio access technologies for 5G systems, and broadband cellular standards Written by a single author who has been involved in the inception and development of 3GPP 4G and 5G technologies for over 20 years Explains how individual components are interrelated and interoperate to make a complete system Covers all system functionalities, features, and their interoperation based on a clear protocol structure Provides sections on network slicing, SDN/NFV/MEC networks, massive MIMO, mmWave and cloud and virtualized RAN implementations Includes a strong focus on implementation and deployment issues
