Product Description
As wireless IP (Internet Protocol) networking technologies have becomeincreasingly critical for the telecommunications industry, manystandards organizations have sought to define a global infrastructurefor wireless IP networks. This book is a practical source of up-to-dateinformation on the growing body of specifications associated withwireless IP network architectures, systems, and protocols, with a focuson the network layer and above.
In a clear, understandable manner, the authors, both leading expertsin the field, provide a detailed description and comparison ofnext-generation wireless networks, specifically IP-based wirelessnetworks, and discuss critical issues that may arise in their design.
Starting with a historical look at wireless networks, the authorsreview the evolution of public mobile services into the current wave ofmobile data services. They discuss the motivations for IP-basedwireless networks and provide an overview of related architecture andstandards activities, particularly as defined by 3GPP and 3GPP2, thetwo most influential organizations in the field.
In addition to network architecture, the book covers protocols in four major areas:
