Date Reviewed: May 5 2017

Fifth generation (5G) is the term used to describe the next standard of mobile networks beyond the 4G LTE networks currently deployed today. With 12 billion mobile devices expected by 2020, and an explosive growth in data traffic, the new 5G standard should be able to cope with data rates of tens of megabits per second for tens of thousands of users, improved coverage and spectral efficiency, and a significant reduction in latency. There will be a huge number of use cases for 5G, from vehicular networks to augmented reality, video services, and tactile Internet.

In this book, a comprehensive overview of the emerging and enabling technologies for 5G mobile communications is provided. Written by international leading experts on the subject, it is a compendium of the current research in key topics such as millimeter-wave, machine-to-machine communications, and massive multiple-input and multiple-output (MIMO) technology. After an introduction to 5G requirements, an overview of the transmission and design techniques for 5G networks is given, followed by network techniques and applications of 5G networks. The intended readership of this book consists of researchers and professionals, in industry and academia, who would like to stay abreast of the current research, technological advancements, and possibilities of 5G systems.
