This book provides a comprehensive overview of the latest research and standardization progress towards the 5th generation (5G) of mobile communications technology and beyond. It covers a wide range of topics from 5G use cases and their requirements, to spectrum, 5G end-to-end (E2E) system architecture including core network (CN), transport network (TN) and radio access network (RAN) architecture, network slicing, security and network management. It further dives into the detailed functional design and the evaluation of different 5G concepts, and provides details on planned trials and pre-commercial deployments across the globe. While the book naturally captures the latest agreements in 3rd Generation Partnership Project (3GPP) New Radio (NR) Release 15, it goes significantly beyond this by describing the likely developments towards the final 5G system that will ultimately utilize a wide range of spectrum bands, address all envisioned 5G use cases, and meet or exceed the International Mobile Telecommunications (IMT) requirements for the year 2020 and beyond (IMT-2020).

5G System Design: Architectural and Functional Considerations and Long Term Research is based on the knowledge and consensus from 158 leading researchers and standardization experts from 54 companies or institutes around the globe, representing key mobile network operators, network vendors, academic institutions and regional bodies for 5G. Different from earlier books on 5G, it does not focus on single 5G technology components, but describes the full 5G system design from E2E architecture to detailed functional design, including details on 5G performance, implementation and roll-out.

Insights on designing a sustainable 6G system as a multi-functional platform that delivers services beyond communication 6G to Build a Sustainable Future provides a summary of the research conducted in the European 6G Flagship project Hexa-X-II towards the sixth generation (6G) mobile networks, with additional input from other smart networks and services joint undertaking (SNS-JU) projects, such as 6G-DISAC, 6G-MUSICAL, 6G-NTN, 6G-SHINE, Deterministic 6G, RIGOROUS, ROBUST-6G, TERRAMETA and TERA6G. The book explores the motivation, values, and needs of 6G, with a strong emphasis on environmental, economic, and social sustainability. To address these needs, the 6G system will be designed as a platform, providing services including and beyond communication; the book provides an end-to-end (E2E) blueprint of this system. The book also outlines the potential paths from the project results towards standardization and further towards introduction to the markets. Topics discussed include: Design principles, requirements, value, validation and blueprints for inclusive, trustworthy, and environmentally sustainable 6G platforms6G transceiver and radio design, covering architecture and deployment, radio link modeling, transmission schemes, and signal processing hardware6G intelligence through AI-native architecture, smart network management, and intent-based managementArchitectural enablers including flexible networks, dependable networking, beyond communication services architecture, and radio protocolsE2E security concepts, covering security enablersAll this from Hexa-X-II as well as other SNS-JU projects6G to Build a Sustainable Future is an essential, up-to-date reference for wireless researchers, network planners, technology analysts, technology marketers, R&D engineers, application developers, spectrum regulators, and students.
