5G BACKHAUL AND FRONTHAUL In-depth coverage of all technologies required for deployment and further evolution of 5G mobile network backhaul and fronthaul.

In this book, a team of communications technology experts deliver an up-to-date and technical discussion of 5G backhaul and fronthaul, preparing readers for the deployment of 5G technologies, covering the technologies essentials, and offering views of further 5G backhaul and fronthaul evolution. 5G Backhaul and Fronthaul serves both advanced-level experts with senior roles in organizations who are already proficient in these technologies, and general interest readers seeking a primer on what these technologies can provide.

Mobile networks evolve, with new system generations bringing higher speeds and new service capabilities, with improved system architectures and novel radio technologies. With this evolution, 5G mobile backhaul and fronthaul play an increasing role, with new challenges in matching the new 5G system capabilities. With 5G, higher peak rates are surely an important enhancement, as was the case with 4G. This is just a single item, however. 5G is the most versatile mobile system so far, supporting not only traditional mobile broadband but also new industrial and enterprise use cases with building blocks like network slicing for unique services.

URLLC services extend the 5G capability to applications which were previously not possible in a mobile system. The 5G network is built to serve different use cases and customers, and these impact transport also. New high-frequency bands mean not only high capacity, but also a potentially huge amount of small cells. Further, radio signals from outdoor sites are heavily attenuated indoors. So, indoor solutions will be required for coverage with related connectivity solutions.

Readers will also find:

Thorough introductions to 5G backhaul and fronthaul, as well as selected industry forums and activities
Analysis of high-level requirements for 5G backhaul and fronthaul and 5G network architecture
In-depth explorations of wireless backhaul and fronthaul access technologies, including fiber optic and wireless technologies, network security, network slicing, IP VPNs, Ethernet services, time sensitive networks and shared transport
Practical treatments of the functions and services provided by backhaul and fronthaul
Coverage of new 5G enterprise, industrial and smart city deployments

Perfect for mobile network industry professionals, 5G Backhaul and Fronthaul will also earn a place in the libraries of people with an interest in 5G technologies, fiber technologies, IP and security, Ethernet, mobile network synchronization and mobile network performance.
