5G Core Networks: Powering Digitalization 1st Edition

Just received this book last night and have gone through a third of the book, and it is excellent. It is to Core Networks at least what Ahmad's latest book on the New Radio is to the New Radio. I think it is closer to Ahmad's book, although not as long and dense, than the book on the New Radio by by Dahlman, also from Ericsson.All in all, this book, certainly along with Ahmad's book, gives the reader a deep and detailed look at two major portions of the 5G network.The only other thing remaining, would be a book on Multi-access Edge Computing (MEC), and the major portions of the network would be covered in text books.This is an exceptional work, and I will have finished it by this weekend. Excellent read and great work by all of the authors.

All the information in this book is public domain. If you’re going to compile that into a book, and English is your second language, get an editor and include an Abbreviations. Then charge for it. Sentence punctuation and grammar in this book is bad for $100.

The purpose of this book should be to make the 3GPP standards easier to consume, at least as an intro to 5G, but unfortunately the quality of the writing and proof-reading mean this book falls short in many places.
