It has emerged from early deployments of an expensive voice service for a few car-borne users, to today’s widespread use of third generation mobile-communication devices that provide a range of mobile services and often include camera, MP3 player an
This very up-to-date and practical book, written by engineers working closely in 3GPP, gives insight into the newest technologies and standards adopted by 3GPP, with detailed explanations of the specific solutions chosen and their implementation in
From the first experiments with radio communication by Guglielmo Marconi in the 1890s, the road to truly mobile radio communication has been quite long. To understand the complex 3G mobile-communication systems of today, it is also important to unde
This book describes the evolution of3Gdigital cellular into an advanced broadband mobile access. The focus of this book is on the evolution of the 3G mobile communication as developed in the 3GPP standardization (Third Generation Partnership Project
