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.

Synopsis:

This book is an extension of the book, "Applications of CDMA in Wireless Communication." The primary focus was on the CDMA system standardized by the Telecommunication Industry Association and American Telecommunication Standard Institute as Standard IS-95A and IS-665. Since the publication of the previous book, CDMA technology has undergone major changes and has become a viable technology for 3G systems. This book discusses the new features of CDMA incorporated in IS-958, that are essential to optimize the CDMA networks. It also outlines a migration path for CDMA to 3G cdma2000.
