Overview

Telecommunications Management in 6G Networks presents a comprehensive and systematic overview of modern approaches to managing infocommunication systems in the era of 5G, Beyond-5G, and emerging 6G technologies. The rapid evolution of network architectures, services, and business models has fundamentally transformed traditional principles of telecommunications management, requiring new frameworks, tools, and methodologies. This book traces the evolution of operational and business support systems from classical TMN and OSS/BSS concepts through NGOSS and Frameworx to the TM Forum Open Digital Architecture (ODA). It explains how cloud-native, component-based, and API-driven architectures enable flexible, scalable, and automated management of complex, multi-vendor communication infrastructures. Dedicated chapters examine key operational domains of modern telecommunications management, including Network Resource Inventory systems, Workforce Management, Revenue Assurance, Fraud Management, Transport Network Management, Customer Experience Management (CEM), and Asset and IT Service Management (AMS). These topics are presented through architectural models, business workflows, and engineering perspectives aligned with international standards and best practices. Special attention is given to transport network control, traffic engineering, MPLS and Segment Routing technologies, predictive analytics, and the use of digital twins for network planning and optimization. The book highlights the growing role of data-driven decision-making, AI-assisted automation, and closed-loop control mechanisms in managing highly dynamic and heterogeneous networks. The concluding chapters address emerging paradigms that define the future of telecommunications operations, including Self-Organizing Networks (SON), Intent-Based Networking (IBN), and autonomous network management. These concepts are discussed as key enablers of intelligent, self-optimizing, and resilient 6G network ecosystems. Designed as an academic and professional reference, this book is intended for telecommunications engineers, OSS/BSS architects, researchers, graduate students, and industry practitioners involved in network management, digital transformation, and the development of next-generation telecommunication systems.
