Description
Book SynopsisPractical Guide Provides Students and Industry Professionals with Latest Information on 5G Mobile Networks
Continuing the tradition established in his previous publications, Jyrki Penttinen offers 5G Explained as a thorough yet concise introduction to recent advancements and growing trends in mobile telecommunications. In this case, Penttinen focuses on the development and employment of 5G mobile networks and, more specifically, the challenges inherent in adjusting to new global standardization requirements and in maintaining a high level of security even as mobile technology expands to new horizons. The text discusses, for example, the Internet of Things (IoT) and how to keep networks reliable and secure when they are constantly accessed by many different devices with varying levels of user involvement and competence.
5G Explained is primarily designed for specialists who need rapid acclimation to the possibilities and concerns presented by 5G ado
