The Next Generation: Wireless Communications for Multimedia and
Beyond
Of all wireless technologies for personal communications, Code
Division Multiple Access (CDMA) offers the best combination of good
signal quality, high security, low power consumption, and excellent
system reliability. Features added in the IS-95 standard means this
impressive list now also includes Third Generation (3G) data
capabilities that will allow CDMA providers to offer Internet and
intranet services for multimedia applications, high-speed business
transactions, and telemetry. The upcoming cdma2000 standard will
further expand usable bandwidth without sacrificing voice quality
or requiring additional spectrum.
In this book by an experienced telecommunications authority, you
will learn how to maximize the power of CDMA, migrate existing
systems to the newest standards, and prepare for a smooth
transition to features yet to come. IS-95 CDMA and cdma2000:
Cellular/PCS Systems Implementation covers all aspects of
up-to-date CDMA implementation and operation, including:
Coding and architecture Radio interface and call flow Physical, data link, and signaling layers Handoff and power control System security Wireless Data Reverse and Forward Link Capacity RF Engineering and network planning Evolution to Third Generation systems
Practicing engineers and their managers will benefit from the
in-depth coverage of IS-95 systems, RF engineering, and capacity
planning. Students will appreciate the forward-looking approach
that offers a look at the future of the industry where they are
preparing for careers. IS-95 CDMA and cdma2000: Cellular/PCS
Systems Implementation offers both practical applications
information and conveniently organized reference materials for
anyone interested in the next generation of wireless
telecommunications. Editorial ReviewsProduct DescriptionOffers both practical applications information and conveniently organized reference materials for those interested in the next generation of wireless telecommunications.

Reader Reviews From Amazon (Ranked by 'Helpfulness') Average Customer Rating: based on 9 reviews. Not for beginners, 2004-06-17 Reviewer rating: I have had this book for a couple of years. Reading it following the chapters of the book, I was frustrated by the lack of cohesion. New names were introduced without much explanations. Index section could be more complete. It is somewhat useful as a reference for certain details | An introduction to IS-95, and a glance to CDMA2000, 2003-02-15 Reviewer rating: The book's content is organized very well. I recommend the book those readers, as it is stated in its preface, who needs an easy and smooth introduction to IS-95 and CDMA 2000, but not requiring a detailed mathematical analysis, or complex and complete systems architectures, network protocols. The book gives a good outline of IS-95 and explain the advances coming with CDMA 2000. | "cdma2000" should not be in the title of this book!, 2002-06-01 Reviewer rating: This book has only one chapter on cdma2000, most of which is a re-work of what's available from standard specifications and freely downloadable from .... The use of "cdma2000" in the title of this book is somewhat tongue-in-cheek, as the book provides little insight beyond what's readily (and cryptically) available elsewhere. The treatment of IS-95 is deeper, particularly on handoff. Coverage of power control is terse. On the whole, this book provides good grounding for IS-95 (cdmaOne), yet leaves the reader to make appropriate connections to cdma2000. | MIGRATION FROM IS-95 TO CDMA2000, 2002-01-21 Reviewer rating: IF YOU ARE LOOKING FOR A COMPLETE OVERVIEW FOR CDMA2000 OR A DETAILED COMPARISON BETWEEN IS-95 AND CDMA2000 THIS BOOK WILL NOT GIVE YOU WHAT YOU WANT. BUT IF YOU HAVE A BASIC UNDERSTANDING OF RF DESIGN, IS95 CONCEPTS ARE EXPLAINED DETAILED ENOUGH TO GET THE BASICS AS WELL AS CDMA2000. EXCELLENT. IF YOU WANT TO HAVE A GENERAL IDEA ABOUT CDMA TECHNOLOGY BUT NOT FOR ADVANCED STUDIES. | Tremenda guia para saber todo sobre el IS-95 actual y sobre, 2001-07-21 Reviewer rating: Con este libro,se llega a dominar los conocimientos del IS-95 y tambien se entera uno de su tecnologia hermana futura CDMA2000. Mi opinion muy particular,creo que despues de entender el CDMA( gracias a esta literatura y otras del Dr Garg), llego a la conclusion que el CDMA IS-95, es la mejor tecnologia de acceso inalambrica del mundo, muy superior al GSM( ya que esta basado en el TDMA). De hecho, la evolucion del GSM hacia 3G, era extremadamente obligatoria, ya que estaba en juego su supervivencia, en cambio el CDMA, evoluciona a 3G muy facil, pues crecer sumando codigos es mas facil que crecer compartiendo y limitando cada vez mas el uso de los slot times,para voz y datos. |
