5.0 out of 5 stars Get your basics right, 8 Sep 2004

By	Z. Ghadialy (London, UK) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

If you ever wanted to get a complete understanding of Mobile Technology quickly, then this is the book to read. After discussing the various access techniques (TDMA, FDMA and CDMA) there are seperate chapters devoted to GSM, GPRS and UMTS. Later on there are chapters on IP Applications, IP Telephony and All IP UMTS network.

Though you cannot expect too much indepth coverage on every single topic, the authors have provided just necessary details. Also some of the concepts that are not explained in other books and standards have been explained here, which are very useful. Some of the topics i found interesting was on ATM, GTP (GPRS Tunneling protocol) and SIP in All-IP network.

I would recommend this book to everyone whishing to enhance their knowledge on Mobile Technologies. If anyone considering taking up some course on UMTS/3G technology should read this book before going on it.

5.0 out of 5 stars Detailed and impressive, 16 May 2004

By	Nigel Seel (Andover, UK) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

These guys know their stuff! If you're looking for a detailed and accurate explanation of protocol stacks, functional architecture and call sequences for GSM, GPRS and UMTS this book will provide it. Their overviews of familar technologies such as ATM and IP, although necessarily brief, are equally accurate and authoritative. Worth the money.
