Product Description
A hands-on tutorial on multicast in third-generation networks!
In this book, the authors describe how to perform multicast, theone-to-many delivery of data to a group of destinations, inthird-generation mobile networks.
The authors provide an overview of the services that can be realizedwith multicast in third-generation networks, describe the mechanismsrequired to support these services and highlight the performance ofseveral multicast mechanisms. The focus of this book is on multicast inUMTS and CDMA2000 networks, the dominant third-generation networkstandards. In addition to describing the standards for multicast, theauthors also provide extensive performance results of multicast inthird-generation networks.
Key Features:
•Provides an in-depth review of the fundamentals of multicast
•Describes in detail the MBMS and BCMCS standards for multicast in UMTS and CDMA2000 networks, respectively
•Provides a comprehensive overview of the services that can be realized with multicast in third-generation networks
•Highlights the performance of multicast in third-generation networks
•Investigates how multicast can be achieved in heterogeneous networks consisting of cellular and broadcast networks
This book is an invaluable resource for professional engineers andresearchers working in the area of third-generation networks.Postgraduate and graduate students on networking and communicationscourses will also find this book an insightful and valuable reference.
