Stochastic Geometry for Wireless Networks
Covering point process theory, random geometric graphs and coverage processes, this rigorous introduction to stochastic geometry will enable you to obtain powerful, general estimates and bounds of wireless network performance and make good design choices for future wireless architectures and protocols that efficiently manage interference effects. Practical engineering applications are integrated with mathematical theory, with an understanding of probability the only prerequisite. At the same time, stochastic geometry is connected to percolation theory and the theory of random geometric graphs and accompanied by a brief introduction to the R statistical computing language. Combining theory and hands-on analytical techniques with practical examples and exercises, this is a comprehensive guide to the spatial stochastic models essential for modelling and analysis of wireless network performance.

5G for the Connected World
<p><b>COMPREHENSIVE HANDBOOK DEMYSTIFIES 5G FOR TECHNICAL AND BUSINESS PROFESSIONALS IN MOBILE TELECOMMUNICATION FIELDS</b> <p>Much is being said regarding the possibilities and capabilities of the emerging 5G technology, as the evolution towards 5G promises to transform entire industries and many aspects of our society. <i>5G for the Connected World</i> offers a comprehensive technical overview that telecommunication professionals need to understand and take advantage of these developments. <p>The book offers a wide-ranging coverage of the technical aspects of 5G (with special consideration of the 3GPP Release 15 content), how it enables new services and how it differs from LTE. This includes information on potential use cases, aspects of radio and core networks, spectrum considerations and the services primarily driving 5G development and deployment. <p>The text also looks at 5G in relation to the Internet of Things, machine to machine communication and technical enablers such as LTE-M, NB-IoT and EC-GSM. Additional chapters discuss new business models for telecommunication service providers and vertical industries as a result of introducing 5G, and strategies for staying ahead of the curve. Other topics include: <ul> <li>Key features of the new 5G radio such as descriptions of new waveforms, massive MIMO and beamforming technologies, as well as spectrum considerations for 5G radio regarding all possible bands</li> <li>Drivers, motivations and an overview of the new 5G system – especially RAN architecture and technology enablers (e.g. service-based architecture, compute-storage split and network exposure) for native cloud deployments</li> <li>Mobile edge computing, Non-3GPP access, Fixed-Mobile Convergence</li> <li>Detailed overview of mobility management, session management and Quality of Service frameworks</li> <li>5G security vision and architecture</li> <li>Ultra-low latency and high reliability use cases and enablers, challenges and requirements (e.g. remote control, industrial automation, public safety and V2X communication)</li> <li>An outline of the requirements and challenges imposed by a massive number of devices connected to cellular networks</li> </ul> <p>While some familiarity with the basics of 3GPP networks is helpful, <i>5G for the Connected World</i> is intended for a variety of readers. It will prove a useful guide for telecommunication professionals, standardization experts, network operators, application developers and business analysts (or students working in these fields) as well as infrastructure and device vendors looking to develop and integrate 5G into their products, and deploy 5G radio and core networks.

A Comprehensive Guide to 5G Security
<p> <strong>The first comprehensive guide to the design and implementation of security in 5G wireless networks and devices </strong> <p> Security models for 3G and 4G networks based on Universal SIM cards worked very well. But they are not fully applicable to the unique security requirements of 5G networks. 5G will face additional challenges due to increased user privacy concerns, new trust and service models and requirements to support IoT and mission-critical applications. While multiple books already exist on 5G, this is the first to focus exclusively on security for the emerging 5G ecosystem. <p> 5G networks are not only expected to be faster, but provide a backbone for many new services, such as IoT and the Industrial Internet. Those services will provide connectivity for everything from autonomous cars and UAVs to remote health monitoring through body-attached sensors, smart logistics through item tracking to remote diagnostics and preventive maintenance of equipment. Most services will be integrated with Cloud computing and novel concepts, such as mobile edge computing, which will require smooth and transparent communications between user devices, data centers and operator networks. <p>Featuring contributions from an international team of experts at the forefront of 5G system design and security, this book: <ul> <li>Provides priceless insights into the current and future threats to mobile networks and mechanisms to protect it</li> <li>Covers critical lifecycle functions and stages of 5G security and how to build an effective security architecture for 5G based mobile networks</li> <li>Addresses mobile network security based on network-centricity, device-centricity, information-centricity and people-centricity views</li> <li>Explores security considerations for all relative stakeholders of mobile networks, including mobile network operators, mobile network virtual operators, mobile users, wireless users, Internet-of things, and cybersecurity experts</li> </ul> <br> <p> Providing a comprehensive guide to state-of-the-art in 5G security theory and practice, <em>A Comprehensive Guide to 5G Security</em> is an important working resource for researchers, engineers and business professionals working on 5G development and deployment.
