About this Item

Hardcover, xxi + 264 pages, NOT ex-library. Very good interior, clean and bright throughout, with unmarked text, free of inscriptions and stamps, firmly bound. Boards show bumped corners (short creases, tiny edge-nicks), a small cosmetic puncture on the rear panel. Issued without a dust jacket. -- An end-to-end guide to industrial 5G - linking RAN functional decomposition, SDN/NFV, and network slicing to URLLC-grade performance in IWSN, the Tactile Internet, smart grids, C-V2X, telehealth, immersive media, UAV coverage, and public safety - with a concise beyond-5G outlook (blockchain, terahertz, LiFi). -- This book provides a complete roadmap from 5G architecture to real deployments in vertical industries. It begins with the architectural blueprint - RAN functional decomposition, network slicing, and software-defined, virtualized cores - showing how these enable bespoke, high-performance services. The core technical throughline is Ultra-Reliable Low-Latency Communications (URLLC), tied to measurable QoS/KPI targets and latency/reliability budgets. Domain chapters analyze Industrial Wireless Sensor Networks (IWSN), the Tactile Internet (QoS and haptic data reduction for teleoperation), smart grids, and the evolution of mobility from DSRC and C-V2X toward autonomy, including Sparse Code Multiple Access (SCMA) for dense vehicular links. Additional modules cover connected healthcare (tele-surgery, service robots), immersive AR/VR and 360° media streaming, UAV-based cellular coverage and intelligent positioning, and integration of public safety networks into the 5G framework. A forward look charts the evolution beyond-5G directions - blockchain, terahertz communication, and LiFi - linking today's designs to tomorrow's capabilities. Ideal for researchers, advanced students, and industry practitioners. -- As industries demand deterministic networking for safety-critical control, autonomous mobility, resilient energy systems, and remote care, 5G's value lies in engineering, not hype. By analyzing the specific KPIs, business models, security challenges, and deployment strategies within each vertical, this volume cumulatively delivers a cross-domain evaluation of what 5G can - and cannot - deliver today. It is a practical, credible resource for anyone building or evaluating real systems in the 5G era and for understanding where beyond-5G must take over.

About this title

Synopsis

How 5G technology can support the demands of multiple vertical industries

Recent advances in technologyhave created new vertical industries that are highly dependent on the availability and reliability of data between multiple locations. The 5G system, unlike previous generations, will be entirely data driven―addressing latency, resilience, connection density, coverage area, and other vertical industry criteria. Enabling 5G Communication Systems to Support Vertical Industries demonstrates how 5G communication systems can meet the needs unique to vertical industries for efficient, cost-effective delivery of service. Covering both theory and practice, this book explores solutions to problems in specific industrial sectors including smart transportation, smart agriculture, smart grid, environmental monitoring, and disaster management. 

The 5G communication system will have to provide customized solutions to accommodate each vertical industry’s specific requirements. Whether an industry practitioner designingthe next generation of wireless communications or a researcher needing to identify open issues and classify their research, this timely book:

• Covers the much-discussed topics of supporting multiple vertical industries and new ICT challenges
• Addresses emerging issues and real-world problems surrounding 5G technology in wireless communication and networking
• Explores a comprehensive array of essential topics such as connected health, smart transport, smart manufacturing, and more
• Presents important topics in a clear, concise style suitable for new learners and professionals alike
• Includes contributions from experts and industry leaders, system diagrams, charts, tables, and examples

Enabling 5G Communication Systems to Support Vertical Industries is a valuable resource telecom engineers industry professionals, researchers, professors, doctorate, and postgraduate students requiring up-to-date information on supporting vertical industries with 5G technology systems.
