Features: This book primarily discusses the fundamental theories and methods of communication network planning, and elaborates on transmission network planning, access network planning, service network planning, and support network planning in detail based on practical communication network planning. It comprehensively introduces the basic principles, planning methods, and specific application cases of communication network planning. The book consists of 12 chapters. Chapters 1 and 2 introduce the basic concepts of telecommunication networks and cover the foundational work of telecommunication network planning. Chapters 3 to 7 conduct an in-depth study of the theoretical methods involved in communication network planning, introducing commonly used planning methods such as graph theory, stochastic processes, statistical analysis, and multi-alternative evaluation. Chapters 8 to 11 provide detailed introductions to the relevant technologies and planning methods of transmission networks, access networks, service networks, and support networks. Chapter 12 takes mobile communication network planning as an example to illustrate the practical application of network planning theory. This book can serve as a textbook for undergraduate students in majors such as communication management, communication engineering, network engineering, information management and information systems, and management engineering, as well as a textbook for graduate students in related fields. It can also be used as a teaching material for vocational and technical colleges in communication engineering design. It serves as a practical reference for communication management personnel, communication engineering design personnel, and engineering technicians in communication networks engaged in communication management, communication planning, feasibility studies for communication networks, and communication system design.
