Produktbeschreibung
Professionals quickly discover that, although the technical specifications for GPRS cover all parts of the engineering functions in detail and depth, they are lacking in one important feature; the conceptual framework within which the specifications sit - GPRS in Practice fills this gap. By beginning with an explanation of why GPRS is necessary and describing the core concept of GPRS operations, the TBF (Temporary Block Flow), a revision section then covers the GSM Air Interface with its Radio, Physical and Logical channels and this progressively leads to the GPRS logical channels - what they do and how they do it. The book then moves on to a brief introduction of the GPRS protocol stack which provides a launch pad for a detailed trip into all the layers of this stack, with detailed diagrams and explanations of each layer integrated into an overall understanding of how the GPRS service operates in practice.
_ Provides descriptions of why procedures are specified and then clearly explains how the specifications work in practice
_ Provides a layered view of the GPRS protocol and deals in detail with each layer separately
_ Includes numerous acronyms and abbreviations accompanied by their full meaning

An invaluable resource for Mobile network operators, Development and deployment engineers and Handset designers.
