Provides an in-depth coverage of the network architecture of 5G by considering both the network reference point architecture and the service-based architecture. It also describes all the user and control plane protocols including the different standalone and non-standalone architecture options of 5G. The radio access technologies such as the waveforms used in 5G, the multi-access and duplexing techniques as well as the resource allocation schemes are treated in details. Additionally, the physical layer signal processing blocks of 5G-NR are covered in depth with elaborate numerical examples to illustrate the functioning of each block in the 5G downlink transmitter and receiver chain.
