This book is essential to obtain a system perspective and a broader view on the application of the very latest wireless technologies. It takes the reader behind the scenes of 3GPP and provides an easily accessible understanding of the basic principles, the latest steps in the standard's evolution, and the motivations behind the development of standardized features. It covers important topics such as multi-carrier features and operation, interface architecture, heterogeneous networks and HSPA system performance. Offering full coverage of recent developments in HSPA, this book will provide a comprehensive description of one of the dominating standards for mobile broadband. With this book, you will: gain an understanding of the 3GPP standardization process, the driving forces behind it, and the need for evolution; learn about the fundamental technology components of a modern wireless communication system; obtain insight into the telecommunications market and its evolution (might take this out); and learn about current trends and future directions of HSPA (will get specifics). It offers a quick and structured overview of the WCDMA/HSPA field, offering insider coverage of the most recent developments in the area (will give specifics later ). It provides 'behind the scenes' information on the development of the standard and the motivation behind key specifications and directives. It examines current market trends and their impact upon the standardization process, and discusses likely future directions and applications for the technology.
