In spite of much effort, algebraic surfaces of general type with \(p_g=q=0\) are still far from being well understood. The present paper studies minimal surfaces of general type with\(p_g=0\) and \(K^2=5\), for which the bicanonical map has degree \(4\) (the maximum possible by the reviewer [Arch. Math. 69, No.5, 435--440 (1997; Zbl 0921.14024)]). Minimal surfaces of general type with \(p_g=0\) and \(K^2=6\) for which the bicanonical map has degree \(4\) have been completely classified in [Topology 40, No. 5, 977--991 (2001; Zbl 1072.14522)]. In that paper it is shown that those surfaces are all obtained by a construction due to Burniat [cf. \textit{C.A.M. Peters}, Nagoya Math. J. 66, 109--119 (1977; Zbl 0329.14019)] and form a connected component of the moduli space of minimal surfaces of general type with \(p_g=0\) and \(K^2=6. \) In the present paper it is shown that minimal surfaces of general type with \(p_g=0\) and \(K^2=5\), with bicanonical map of degree \(4\) and having \textbf{smooth} bicanonical image, are also all obtained by the Burniat construction. Essentially the same methods of \textit{R. Pardini} and the reviewer [Topology 40, No. 5, 977--991 (2001; Zbl 1072.14522)] are used.
