Ease of a Novel, but Its serious business and value for money,

This review is from: WCDMA Design Handbook (Hardcover)
Prior to the review, i would like to mention that i have over 6 years of experience in Wireless core network Product validation in GSM/UMTS; also i had read another book "UMTS" by "Javier Sanchez" & "Mamadou Thioune". Therefore i had a fair handle on the architecture and aspects of UMTS access, but my understanding was lacking a solid grounding.
I picked up this book and started reading, and it was like all the missing pieces were found, and my understanding stood on a more solid ground. To give a few examples,the coverage of the following things in the second chapte,were pivotal in plugging the gaps in my understanding. - how to differtiate a UE in uplink as well as downlink - principles of WCDMA physical layer - channelization & scrambling codes,soft handover,use of compressed mode & power management. These are known by any person who has a "more than casual" study of the UMTS access, but they were clearly marked as differtiators. - Radio and data connections - UMTS security architecture etc What clinches the deal for me is Chapter 3 with its clear explanations of single user spreading code use, multi-user spreading code use(to mention a few) with clear diagrammatic illustrations. The author has distilled years of experience in this book; any user who is suffciently experieced in wireless networks can pick this book up and glide across from beginning to end This book caters to R99 UMTS networks;the only thing i wish this book had was the coverage of newer technologies - HSDPA, HSUPA and LTE. |
