Optical Communications in the 5G Era provides an up-to-date overview of the emerging optical communication technologies for 5G wireless networks. It outlines the emerging applications of optical networks in supporting future wireless networks, state-of-the-art optical communication technologies, and explores new R&D opportunities in the field of converged fixed-mobile networks. This book is an ideal reference for university researchers, graduate students, and industry R&D engineers in optical communications, photonics, and wireless communications who need a broad and deep understanding of modern optical communication technologies, systems, and networks that are fundamental to 5G and beyond.
The fifth-generation technology standard for cellular networks (5G) is extensively regarded as the key driver for modern telecommunications in the decade of the 2020s. To better support 5G, optical communication networks are being redesigned and refined. This book aims to provide an up-to-date overview of the important optical communication technologies in the 5G era. A number of attempts have been made to capture the recent technological advances in various optical network segments, such as front-haul, access, metro, data center, backbone, and undersea network segments. The emerging fifth-generation fixed network (F5G) initiative is also discussed.
This book is intended for a diverse readership including but not limited to researchers, engineers, professors, graduate students, and undergraduate students, to gain knowledge of and insights into modern optical communication technologies that are crucial to 5G and F5G, which are impacting our society in a profound way. This book also aims to help the readers to broaden their knowledge on the emerging applications of optical networks in 5G mobile networks, deepen their understanding of the state-of-the-art optical communication technologies, and explore new R&D opportunities in the field of converged fixed-mobile networks.
