Softwarization of Mobile Networks: Technologies, Protocols and Applications explains how these technologies are being incorporated into the basic architectural frameworks of emerging mobile networks, leading to a significant transformation of the network architecture and communication protocols. The book discusses the latest research trends in this field and explains how the usage of SDN & NFV in Mobile Networks enables new services and features such as Network Slicing, Multiple Radio Access, Broadband-Broadcast Convergence, Efficient Content Delivery, and also brings efficiency to some of the existing ones.

Mobility Management, Load Balancing, Interference Management, Dual Connectivity and other topics are covered. The book also elaborates on the relevant protocols and architectural aspects of the mobile networks, especially Fifth Generation (5G) Mobile Networks, which is currently under development in various Standard Development Organizations, such as, 3GPP, IEEE, ITU.
