Format:Hardcover
I would highly recommend this book for people who are working within the telecommunications sector and wireless industry. However the only qualm I have with this book is that is gives a very high level definition of things and does not go in the depth of things. Moreover, one should be careful with the versions as things are moving at a very fast pace in the field of mobile computing.

A Must for 3G and UMTS readers.
3 Dec 2002
Format:Hardcover
Primary focus of this book is protocols for 3G/UMTS networks. This book covers 3G concepts in some detail but pays attention mostly on network side and protocols. Which makes this book a must to have together with Kaaranen's and/or Korhonen's book. Contents is light in maths and easy to read. Very good diagrams and plain English. A concise and easy to access content makes this book very useful. Read at once and get the idea how it works. Warmly recommended.
Unique Reference
7 Jan 2003
Format:Hardcover|Amazon Verified Purchase
It is a very well organized textbook. Authors first explain reasons (economic and technical) for IP-3G convergence. Major conceptual differences between IP and mobile communications, on standardization processes, network approaches, connectivity, design approaches are compared in order to highlight difficulties for such a converged solution. Then three major issues are examined in details: session management & SIP protocol, QoS and Mobility Management (macro and micro). Last, authors discuss what is next: All-IP 3G and beyond.
This is an excellent book about the subject, for its coverage, simplicity and appropriate references and 'further readings' lists given at the end of each chapter.
