Cellular Communications (Hardcover, New)

Many electrical engineering departments currently offer courses in cellular communications. A student wishing to work in the cellular communications industry needs a comprehensive cellular communications foundation and exposure to the operating principles of a various technologies. Due to the diverse nature of cellular communications, the new graduate just beginning a career requires significant time to learn various aspects of specific technologies. Cellular Communications: A Comprehensive and Practical Guide will significantly shorten the learning time, enabling the new employee to be productive and to contribute to the companya (TM)s success much earlier.

Cellular Communications: A Comprehensive and Practical Guide is a unification of the fundamental concepts of cellular communications with insights into practical deployments, as well as various features and design aspects of cellular standards. This text book provides an end-to-end perspective of cellular operations, ranging from physical layer details to call set-up, and from the radio network to the core network. It also includes exercises and examples throughout the book, as well as a link to a solutiona (TM)s guide.

Cellular Communications: A Comprehensive and Practical Guide contains essential knowledge of major competing technologies, enabling those people knowledgeable in one technology to gain a better understanding of another technology when necessary. The authorsa (TM) unique hands-on design, optimization, and training experiences with digital 2G and 3G cellular standards will translate into a textbook that truly reflects the prevailing cellular networks. The authors are fortunate to have directly worked onnumerous cellular systems, and will share the knowledge via this book. The text book itself is a virtual teacher.

Cellular Communications: A Comprehensive and Practical Guide is designed as a textbook for advance-level students, tomorrowa (TM)s leaders, studying computer science and electrical engineering. This book addresses the needs of practitioners and researchers working in the cellular industry as well.
