Sinossi

Der Telekommunikationsstandard GSM - benannt nach der Arbeitsgruppe "Groupe Spéciale Mobile", die seine Einführung vorantrieb - ist mittlerweile in über 200 Ländern bzw. Territorien verfügbar und damit der einzige wirklich globale Standard im Bereich mobiler Kommunikation. Kein Zufall also, dass der vorliegende Band bereits in die dritte Auflage geht. Er versteht sich einerseits als gründliche Einführung in GSM, bietet andererseits aber auch einen Überblick über aktuelle Entwicklungen und Zukunftstrends. Gegenüber der Vorauflage hat sich einiges geändert - was nicht zuletzt die Änderung im Titel reflektiert. Er enthält nun "Architecture" statt "Switching" und folgt damit der Akzentverschiebung des Bandes in Richtung des Themas GSM-Netzwerkarchitektur. Für die Neuauflage wurden zudem zahlreiche Abschnitte erweitert und überarbeitet, etwa die zu HSCSD (High-Speed Circuit Switched Data) und EDGE (Enhanced Data Rates for GSM Evolution) sowie zu MMS und anderen Diensten (Voicebox etc.). Die Stärke des Buches liegt nicht zuletzt darin, dass es sich im Unterscheid zu einem Großteil der Konkurrenz nicht auf einzelne Themen wie GPRS oder EDGE konzentriert, sondern über diese Aspekte hinaus GSM insgesamt in den Blick nimmt.

Dalla quarta di copertina

With around 3 billion subscribers, GSM is the world's most commonly used technology for wireless communication. Providing an overview of the innovations that have fuelled this phenomena, GSM: Architecture, Protocols and Services, Third Edition offers a clear introduction to the field of cellular systems. Special emphasis is placed on system architecture and protocol aspects, and topics range from addressing concepts through mobility management to network management.

This third edition contains around 25% new and reworked material and has been thoroughly updated to encompass recent advances and future trends. It serves as both an introductory textbook for graduate students as well as a reference resource for telecommunications engineers and researchers.

This edition:

  • Presents capacity enhancement methods like sectorization, the application of adaptive antennas for Spatial Filtering for Interference Reduction (SFIR) and Space Division Multiple Access (SDMA)
  • Provides a detailed introduction to GPRS, HSCSD, and EDGE for packet-switched services and higher data rates
  • Features updated coverage on the vastly expanded range of GSM services, including an examination of Multimedia Messaging Service (MMS)
  • Adopts a highly graphical approach with numerous illustrations
