TCP Performance over UMTS-HSDPA Systems

TCP Performance over UMTS-HSDPA Systems
AUERBACH | 0849368383 | 2006 | PDF | 211p | 2MB | RS | FF
TCP Performance over UMTS-HSDPA Systems provides a comprehensive study of the effect of TCP both on achieved application bit rate performance and system capacity. The book describes how to reduce, with or without modification of TCP implementations, the effect of wireless networks on TCP. Emphasizing the effect of scheduling to improve TCP performance over wireless systems, the authors focus on the performance of TCP traffic over HSDPA. This text is ideal for advanced undergraduate students, graduate students, and researchers with basic knowledge in wireless networks that are keen on learning more about the UMTS access network evolution and interactions of the wireless link with TCP.

IEEE 802 Wireless Systems: Protocols, Multi-Hop Mesh/Relaying, Performance and Spectrum Coexistence

IEEE 802 Wireless Systems: Protocols, Multi-Hop Mesh/Relaying, Performance and Spectrum Coexistence
Wiley | 0470014393 | 2007 | PDF | 402p | 23MB | RS | FF

Throughout the next decade, 802 wireless systems will become an integral part of fourth generation (4G) cellular communication systems, where the convergence of wireless and cellular networks will materialize through support of interworking and seamless roaming across dissimilar wireless and cellular radio access technologies. IEEE 802 Wireless Systems clearly describes the leading systems, covering IEEE 802.11 WLAN, IEEE 802.15 WPAN, IEEE 802.16 WMAN systems’ architecture, standards and protocols (including mesh) with an instructive approach allowing individuals unfamiliar with wireless systems to follow and understand these technologies. Ranging from digital radio transmission fundamentals, duplex, multiplexing and switching to medium access control, radio spectrum regulation, coexistence and spectrum sharing, this book also offers new solutions to broadband multi-hop networking for cellular and ad hoc operation. The book
Gives a comprehensive overview and performance evaluation of IEEE 802.11, 802.15 and 802.16
Includes a tutorial like introduction to the basics of wireless communication
Discusses challenges in mesh/multi-hop relaying networks and provides profound solutions for their realization with 802 Wireless Systems
Covers spectrum sharing on different levels and provides solutions for coexistence, cooperation and interworking of 802 Wireless Systems that are following the same or different standards, but share the same spectrum
Includes a detailed overview and introduction on cognitive radio and dynamic spectrum access
Accompanying website contains simulation software and provides slides of the figures and tables from the book ready for course presentation
This book is an essential text for advanced undergraduate students with a basic working knowledge of wireless communication, graduate students and engineers working in the field of wireless communications.

Understanding Telephone Electronics, Fourth Edition

Understanding Telephone Electronics, Fourth Edition
Newnes | 0750671750 | 2001 | PDF | 432p | 9MB | RS | FF

Throughout its history, Understanding Telephone Electronics has been, by far, one of the most popular books on telecommunication electronics in the trade, electronic distribution, and educational markets because of its very simple, direct approach to the technology. In keeping with the distinguished tradition of its predecessors, Understanding Telephone Electronics, Fourth Edition covers conventional telephone fundamentals, including both analog and modern digital communication techniques, and provides basic information on the functions of each telephone system component, how electronic circuits generate dial tones, and how the latest digital transmission techniques work.

This new edition of Stephen Bigelow's well-known, widely used text on telephone electronics offers comprehensive coverage of the latest developments in fiber optic technology, the convergence of telecommunications, cable-TV and Internet services, and CTI (computer telephony integration). The authors have made extensive revisions in these and other essential areas, such as business systems, voice mail, phone networking, enhanced services, satellite communications, wireless paging systems, digital communications, and much more to ensure that topics covered are current with the most recent advances in technology. The original Understanding Telephone Electronics has been a "gold standard" reference and training staple for years. Likewise, Understanding Telephone Electronics, Fourth Edition will serve as an essential and invaluable resource for technicians, engineers, students at major universities and corporations, and anyone with an enthusiasm for telecommunication electronics.

Provides comprehensive coverage of telephone system functions and the role of the Internet in telephony

Updates encompass the trends and advances of the booming telecommunications field, with new chapters on fiber optic technology and the Internet
