Reviews
'5G is the biggest opportunity ever for our industry. With capabilities much greater than today's networks, opportunities beyond our imagination will appear. With 5G, we will be able to digitalize industries and realize the full potential of a networked society. New ecosystems will emerge, including new players. To fulfill the expectations on 5G, the industry needs to work in close collaboration with a joint understanding of the technology and its potential. This book is an excellent knowledge base, explaining the potential of 5G and the required technology behind it.' Ulf Ewaldsson, Senior Vice President and CTO, Ericsson
'So far, cellular innovation has focused on driving data rates. With 5G, in addition we see the advent of low-latency Tactile Internet and massive IoT generating new opportunities for society. The first comprehensive view on 5G, based mainly on the EU METIS project, this book gives a great insight into challenges and solutions.' Gerhard Fettweis, Technische Universitat, Dresden
'The first comprehensive text on 5G, essential to understand the enabling technologies that will make the future hyper-connected world a reality.' Narcis Cardona, Polytechnic University of Valencia
'... a valuable source of information for graduate students specializing in mobile communications. I can truly recommend this book to the entire wireless communication community.' Rafal Krenz, IEEE Communications Magazine
