Book descriptionIn bringing to the readers the book 5G Multimedia Communication: Technology, Multiservices and Deployment, the aim is to present current work and direction on the challenging subject of multimedia communications, with theoretical and practical roots. The last two decades have witnessed an extremely fast evolution of mobile cellular network technology. The 5th generation of mobile wireless systems has achieved the first milestone towards finalization and deployment by 2020. This is vital to the development of future multimedia communications. Also, it is necessary to consider 5G technology from the performance point of view by analyzing network capabilities to the operator and to the end user in terms of data rate, capacity, coverage, energy efficiency, connectivity and latency. The book is divided into three major parts with each part containing 4-7 chapters: critical enabling technology, multiservices network, deployment scenarios. The first part discusses enabling technologies, such as green communication, channel modeling, massive and distributed MIMO, ML-based networks. In the second part, different methodologies and standards for multiservices have been discussed. Exclusive chapters have been dedicated to each of the open research challenges such as multimedia operating in 5G environment, network slicing optimization, mobile edge computing, mobile video multicast/broadcast, integrated satellite and drone communication. The third part paved the way to deployment scenarios for different innovative services including integration of a multi-energy system in Smart cities, intelligent transportation systems, 5G connectivity in the transport sector, health care services, 5G-Edge based video surveillance, challenges of connectivity for massive IoT in 5G and beyond systems. The book is written by experts in the field who introduced scientific and engineering concepts, covering the 5G multimedia communication areas. The book can be read cover-to-cover or selectively in the areas of interest for the readers. Generally, the book is intended for novel readers who could benefit from understanding general concepts, practitioners who seek guidance into the field and senior level as well as graduate level engineering students in understanding the process of today’s wireless multimedia communications.
Engineering teamIn order to sum up the new Book in once sentence, it is all about new multimedia services and open research challenges in 5G communications. The fifth generation (5G) of mobile wireless systems, devices and applications is important and fast growing industry. The book provides the reader with overview of current 5G progress and achievements, including feature functions and underlying technologies for new multimedia services which accommodate massive number of connected devices maintaining high quality of user experience. Besides detailed introduction describing the representative modules and services, the critical enabling technologies are identified in current situation, as well as envisioned the future directions and challenges.
Aim and scopeThe last two decades have witnessed an extremely fast evolution of mobile cellular network technologies. In general, in 5G development it is all about question of how to innovatively exploit the degrees of freedom (DoFs) of time, frequency, and spatial resources to satisfy the diverse and refined requirements of society. Based on this perspective, in this book, we rough out and discuss the potential trends of utilizing these resources in mobile networks. Recently, the fifth generation of mobile wireless systems is achieved the first milestones towards finalization and deployment by 2020. 5G Phase 1 (3GPP Release 15) work began in June 2016 and was set to complete in September 2018. 5G Phase 2 (3GPP Release 16) is a major release for the project, because it will bring the specification organization’s IMT-2020 RIT/SRIT submission (to ITU-R WP 5D) for an initial full 3GPP 5G system to its completion. Release 16 will be put in a frozen state in March 2020 with a targeted date of June 2020, when complete 5G standards will be published. However, the capabilities of 5G networks do not depend only on 3GPP specifications and on network and user equipment but also on the practical network deployment constraints. Also, there is a clear motivation for addressing energy efficiency in 5G networks: we want to keep the energy consumption of the mobile network on the current level, or even lower it, while data traffic keeps increasing and number of base stations keeps increasing. It is important that base station installations must comply with the local EMF exposure limitations! Finally, it is necessary consider 5G technology from the performance point of view by analysing network capabilities to the operators and to the end users in terms of data rates, capacity, coverage, energy efficiency, connectivity, and latency. 5G networks need to fulfill a number of new performance targets (extreme mobile broadband, massive IoT, critical communications).

- After ten years of intensive research and development in the area, the standardization of 5G communications has been completed, and the system is being deployed worldwide. 5G System [Access network (3GPP New Radio gNB), Core network (5GC), Mobile terminal (UE)] is envisioned to adopt a number of emerging concepts and technologies such as heterogeneous networks, Device-to-Device communication, Network Slicing technology, 5G NFV and SDN Control plane, Massive MIMO communication, dynamic 3D beamforming, mmWave communication, Cloud-RAN, multi-service technology, cognitive spectrum access, 5G NOMA new radio and multiple access technology, energy efficient network design, adaptive techniques and machine learning communication.
- As for multimedia communications in 5G, open research challenges are multimedia operating over 5G environment, network slicing optimization, mobile cloud computing (MCC), mobile edge computing (MEC) and immersive media delivery, mobile video multicast/broadcast, QoE/QoS management over 5G. Key building blocks for 5G are New Radio (NR) air interface, new radio and core network architectures, virtualization and automation technologies, and new types of devices. These building blocks enable 5G to offer target 5G services.
- The proposed deployment scenarios for different services having diverging requirements include enhanced mobile broadband (eMBB), massive machine communications (mMTC) and ultra-reliability and low-latency (uRLLC) in 5G. Example 5G performance requirements are 20 Gbps peak data rate, 1 ms radio network latency, 10 Mbps/m2 area throughput, and 1 million (low-rate) IoT devices per square kilometer. 3GPP defined the 5G cellular technology in Release 15 to meet ITU’s IMT-20202 performance requirements. It is expected innovations across multiple application fields, including utransportation, manufacturing, defense, health care, agriculture, shipping, warehousing, education... Perspectives on vertical industries and use case study are oriented towards massive/critical IoT, Industrial IoT, collaborative systems, Smart Grid and multi energy systems, Green technology, Smart Cities, intelligent traffic and transportation systems as well as mHealth (mobile health) and mFS (mobile financial services).
