Summary

This authoritative resource provides a comprehensive treatment of the evolution of wireless communications to help practitioners keep pace with the latest developments in their field. Professionals find expert guidance on today's most critical topics, including inter-networking of 3G CDMA (code division multiple access), broadband wireless, CDMA wireless local loop and wireless LAN, security of wireless networks, deployment management, and market implications of wireless technology for business and consumers. The book provides an in-depth understanding of three important standards CDMA2000, WCDMA, and TD-SCDMA, and explains the synergies among these technologies. This forward-looking book also discusses beyond 3G mobile communication systems, the concept of global roaming, internetworking between LAN and WAN networks, and the future of two-way broadband wireless communications.
