5G/5G-Advanced Networks

Published by Academic Press, 5G/5G-Advanced Networks: Planning, Design, and Optimization, 2nd Edition, provides a comprehensive technical foundation for modern wireless infrastructure engineering. Author Christofer Larsson establishes core analytical models and network planning principles for telecom operator specialists, service provider personnel, network planners, and academic researchers analyzing high-demand mobile communications.

The text addresses key system layers, ranging from clustering, partitioning, and resource assignment to access network design and optimization techniques. Core topics include traffic routing, effective bandwidth calculations, resilient backbone design, network resilience, and energy efficiency. Further sections examine dynamic resource management, quality of service parameters, and operational frameworks tailored for Internet of Things applications.

As a distinctive applied feature, the text contains practical hints sections featuring Python code examples to assist algorithm implementation and validate technical solutions. This practical approach equips university researchers, graduate students, and practicing industry engineers to test theoretical constructs directly within computational workflows across current 5G environments.
