GSM: Vermittlung, Dienste, Standards und Protokolle - erklärt für Ingenieure, Forscher und fortgeschrittene Studenten. Diese durchgehend aktualisierte und erweiterte 2. Auflage behandelt auch GPRS und erläutert UMTS wesentlich ausführlicher als die Erstauflage. Wichtige Themen sind außerdem International Roaming, mobile Datendienste und Netzwerkmanagement. Mit einem aufschlußreichen Ausblick auf zukünftige Entwicklungen.
Since the publication of the first edition the number of GSM subscribers has exploeded and it is now deployed in more than 140 countries worldwide. Revised and updated GSM Switching, Services and Protocols now features the abundant new services and applications that GSM can provide. By focusing on the fundamentals of the mobile radio systems, it provides an excellent introductory insight to the whole area of GSM cellular radio. By providing an easy-to-follow instructive text, this second edition will have insight appeal to telecommunication engineers, researchers, adn developers. The highly graphical approach and numerous illustrations will also make it an indispensable reference for senior undergraduates and postgraduates in electrical and computer engineering.
