Building on the success of the first edition, UMTS Networkssecond edition allows readers to continue their journey throughUMTS up to the latest 3GPP standardization phase, Release 5.Containing revised, updated and brand new material, it provides acomprehensive view on the UMTS network architecture and its latestdevelopments. Accompanied by numerous illustrations, the practicalapproach of the book benefits from the authors' pioneeringresearch and training in this field.
* Provides a broad yet detailed overview of the latest worldwidedevelopments in UMTS technology.
* Includes brand new sections on the IP MultimediaSubsystem and High Speed Downlink Packet Access according to 3GPPRelease 5 specifications.
* Contains heavily revised sections on the evolution from GSM toUMTS Multi-access, the UMTS Radio Access Network, the UMTS CoreNetwork and services.
* Includes updated versions on services in the UMTS environment,security in the UMTS environment and UMTS protocols.
* Illustrates all points with cutting-edge practical examplesgleaned from the authors' research and training at theforefront of UMTS.
The illustrative, hands-on approach will appeal to operators,equipment vendors, systems designers, developers and marketingprofessionals who require comprehensive, practical information onthe latest developments in UMTS. This second edition will alsobenefit students and researchers in the field of mobilenetworking.
