MASTERING 5G NETWORKS: From Telecom Basics to Implementation Details, Dimensioning, and the Future of 5G

A Complete Immersion into SA and NSA Architecture – From Fundamentals to Advanced Implementation

5G is not just an incremental upgrade in speed; it is a complete revolution in mobile connectivity. To lead in this new era, professionals need more than a general overview—they need a deep, technical understanding of the architectures that make this transformation possible.

Written by Wagner R. Bomfim, this work is the most comprehensive technical reference for those who want to truly master 5G Standalone (SA) and Non-Standalone (NSA) networks. Combining over 20 years of field experience with a rigorous analytical approach, this book bridges the gap between complex protocols and real-world deployment.

Key Highlights of this Work:

Architecture Deep Dive: Detailed analysis of the 5G Core (5GC) and Evolved Packet Core (EPC).

SA vs. NSA Implementation: A step-by-step guide to the different deployment modes, including migration strategies.

Cutting-Edge Technologies: Comprehensive coverage of Network Slicing, Multi-access Edge Computing (MEC), and Massive MIMO.

Spectrum & Performance: Technical insights into Millimeter Waves (mmWave) and real-world performance metrics.

The Future of Connectivity: A strategic look at the technological horizons leading toward 6G.

Who is this book for?

Telecom Engineers and Architects looking to deepen their technical expertise.

Network Planners involved in the design and optimization of 5G ecosystems.

IT Professionals and Consultants who need to understand the foundations of 5G for system integration.
