This book provides an accessible and comprehensive
tutorial on the key enabling technologies for 5G and beyond, covering both the
fundamentals and the state-of-the-art 5G standards. 

The book begins with a historical overview of the
evolution of cellular technologies and addresses the questions on why 5G and
what is 5G. Following this, six tutorial chapters describe the fundamental
technology components for 5G and beyond. These include modern advancements in
channel coding, multiple access, massive multiple-input and multiple-output
(MIMO), network densification, unmanned aerial vehicle enabled cellular
networks, and 6G wireless systems. 

The second part of this book consists of five chapters
that introduce the basics of 5G New Radio (NR) standards developed by 3GPP.
These include 5G architecture, protocols, and physical layer aspects. The third
part of this book provides an overview of the key 5G NR evolution directions.
These directions include ultra-reliable low-latency communication (URLLC)
enhancements, operation in unlicensed spectrum, positioning, integrated access
and backhaul, air-to-ground communication, and non-terrestrial networks with
satellite communication.
