New book on 5G Innovations for Industry Transformation

Thank you Jari Collin and Jarkko Pellikka, and the whole case study team for this great joint activity – what a nice way to close the year 2023 holding the actual book!

Many verticals benefit from the renewed architecture and features of 5G. As the specifications and deployments advance, our understanding of the new use cases through 5G concretizes. 5G brings along with opportunities to serve industries and enterprises more efficiently, and this book wraps up theoretical and practical aspects of the 5G innovative landscape.

One of the benefits of 5G is seen through the new models the 3GPP provides for advanced private network deployments, or non-public networks (NPN). I found it fascinating to study the landscape of the standalone NPN, public network integrated NPN, and outsourced NPN, and the respective opportunities balancing the important criteria for entities interested in different variants of NPN. As a part of this activity and one of our conference publications derived from our efforts, it was also nice to discuss the theme at the AICT 2023 on June, realizing the tecno-economic optimization of NPN deployments can trigger rather interesting further studies.
