3G Wireless Networks
Real-world
instruction in the design and deployment of 3G networks.
Pin down the technical details that make 3G wireless
networking actually work. In 3G Wireless Networks, experts Clint Smith and
Daniel Collins dissect critical issues of compatibility, internetworking,
and voice/data convergence, providing you with in-depth explanations of
how key standards and protocols intersect and interconnect. This guide
digs into the gritty details of day-to-day network operations, giving you
a chance to understand the difficulties service providers will experience
in making the changeover from 2nd Generation systems (CDMS etc.) to 2.5
Generation systems like WAP and EDGE and finally to full throttle 3G
networks. It describes key standards, digs deep into the guts of relevant
network protocols, and details the full range of compatibility issues
between the US (CDMA 2000) and European (WCDMA) versions of the standard.
Plenty of call flow diagrams show you exactly how the technologies work.

Introduction to 3G Mobile Communications
Explains the principles and basic
concepts of third generation (3G) mobile telecommunication
systems--digital multimedia handsets with high data transmission
rates--focusing on the 3GPP-specified frequency division duplex (FDD) mode
system. The wideband CDMA air interface is an important component of the
3G system and it is discussed in several chapters. Other chapters overview
the universal mobile telecommunications system (UMTS), modulation
techniques, channel coding, network architecture, network planning and
management, and 3G system signaling procedures. The final chapter predicts
what kind of telecommunication systems and services will be used in the
year 2010.
