✦ Synopsis

This book investigates new enabling technologies for Fi-Wi convergence. The editors discuss Fi-Wi technologies at the three major network levels involved in the path towards convergence: system level, network architecture level, and network management level. The main topics will be: a. At system level: Radio over Fiber (digitalized vs. analogic, standardization, E-band and beyond) and 5G wireless technologies b. Network architecture level: NGPON, WDM-PON, BBU Hotelling, Cloud Radio Access Networks (C-RANs), HetNets. c. Network management level: SDN for convergence, Next-generation Point-of-Presence, Wi-Fi LTE Handover, Cooperative MultiPoint.

• Addresses the Fi-Wi convergence issues at three different levels, namely at the system level, network architecture level, and network management level
• Provides approaches in communication systems, network architecture, and management that are expected to steer the evolution towards fiber-wireless convergence
• Contributions from leading experts in the field of Fiber-Wireless Convergence
