No customer reviews yet ISBN 9780470014714

A highly practical guide rooted in theory to include the necessary background for taking the reader through the planning, implementation and management stages for each type of cellular network.

Present day cellular networks are a mixture of the technologies like GSM, EGPRS and WCDMA. They even contain features of the technologies that will lead us to the fourth generation networks. Designing and optimising these complex networks requires much deeper understanding. Advanced Cellular Network Planning and Optimisation presents radio, transmission and core network planning and optimisation aspects for GSM, EGPRS and WCDMA networks with focus on practical aspects of the field. Experts from each of the domains have brought their experiences under one book making it an essential read for design practitioners, experts, scientists and students working in the cellular industry.

Key Highlights

  • Focus on radio, transmission and core network planning and optimisation
  • Covers GSM, EGPRS, WCDMA network planning & optimisation
  • Gives an introduction to the networks/technologies beyond WCDMA, and explores its current status and future potential
  • Examines the full range of potential scenarios and problems faced by those who design cellular networks and provides advice and solutions all backed up with real-world examples

This text will serve as a handbook to anyone engaged in the design, deployment, performance and business of Cellular Networks.

"Efficient planning and optimization of mobile networks are key to guarantee superior quality of service and user experience. They also form the essential foundation for the success of future technology development, making this book a valuable read on the road towards 4G."
--Tero Ojanperä, Chief Technology Officer, Nokia Networks

Cognitive Radio Communications and Networks: Principles and Practice
<p><i>Cognitive Radio Communications and Networks</i> gives comprehensive and balanced coverage of the principles of cognitive radio communications, cognitive networks, and details of their implementation, including the latest developments in the standards and spectrum policy. Case studies, end-of-chapter questions, and descriptions of various platforms and test beds, together with sample code, give hands-on knowledge of how cognitive radio systems can be implemented in practice. Extensive treatment is given to several standards, including IEEE 802.22 for TV White Spaces and IEEE SCC41</p> <p>Written by leading people in the field, both at universities and major industrial research laboratories, this tutorial text gives communications engineers, R&D engineers, researchers, undergraduate and post graduate students a complete reference on the application of wireless communications and network theory for the design and implementation of cognitive radio systems and networks</p> <ul> <li>Each chapter is written by internationally renowned experts, giving complete and balanced treatment of the fundamentals of both cognitive radio communications and cognitive networks, together with implementation details</li> <li>Extensive treatment of the latest standards and spectrum policy developments enables the development of compliant cognitive systems</li> <li>Strong practical orientation - through case studies and descriptions of cognitive radio platforms and testbeds - shows how real world cognitive radio systems and network architectures have been built</li></ul> <p>Alexander M.
