Synopsis

Advanced Antenna Systems for 5G Network Deployments: Bridging the Gap between Theory and Practice provides a comprehensive understanding of the field of advanced antenna systems (AAS) and how they can be deployed in 5G networks. The book gives a thorough understanding of the basic technology components, the state-of-the-art multi-antenna solutions, what support 3GPP has standardized together with the reasoning, AAS performance in real networks, and how AAS can be used to enhance network deployments.

About the Authors

Henrik Asplund received his MSc degree from Uppsala University, Sweden, in 1996 and joined Ericsson Research, Stockholm, Sweden, in the same year. Since then, he has been working in the field of antennas and propagation supporting predevelopment and standardization of all major wireless technologies from 2G to 6G. His current research interests include antenna techniques, radio channel measurements and modeling, and deployment options for 6G including higher frequencies.

Jonas Karlsson joined Ericsson in 1993. Since then, he has held various technical and leader positions in Ericsson covering both radio access research and system management in product development. He is currently an Expert in Multi-Antenna Systems at Business Area Networks. He holds an MSc in electrical engineering and engineering physics from Linköping University, Sweden, and a PhD in electrical engineering from the University of Tokyo, Japan.

Fredric Kronestedt joined Ericsson in 1993 to work on RAN research. Since then, he has taken on many different roles, including system design and system management. He currently serves as an Expert, Radio Network Deployment Strategies, at Business Area Networks, where he focuses on radio network deployment and evolution aspects for 5G and 6G. He holds an MSc in electrical engineering from KTH Royal Institute of Technology, Stockholm, Sweden.

Erik Larsson joined Ericsson in 2005. He is currently a Senior Specialist working with concept development and network performance for NR with a focus on massive MIMO. He holds both an MSc in engineering physics and a PhD in electrical engineering, specializing in signal processing, from Uppsala University, Sweden.

David Astely is currently a Principal Researcher with Ericsson Research in the radio area. He received his PhD in signal processing from KTH Royal Institute of Technology in 1999 and has been with Ericsson since 2001, where he has held various positions in both research and product development.
