DESCRIPTION:
The GPRS technology is also carried forward to the 3G systems and it is vital that engineers working in the GSM/3G engineering fields understand the GPRS technology.The specifications are the source for the technology, but in general the specifications provide exactly that - specifications and not explanations! With this in mind, GPRS in Practice is written in a simple manner using simple language allowing the reader to fully understand the complex GPRS concepts and how the GPRS interface works.Provides an invaluable companion to the specifications as it supplies explanations of the technicalities and cross-references the specifications within a practical contextPresents explanations of paging, cell reselection, temporary block flow, multislot classes and many other concepts not available elsewhereExplains the underlying concepts of the GPRS system with the use of excellent diagrams
Professionals quickly discover that, although the technical specifications for GPRS cover all parts of the engineering functions in detail and depth, they are lacking in one important feature; the conceptual framework within which the specifications sit - GPRS in Practice fills this gap. The book then moves on to a brief introduction of the GPRS protocol stack which provides a launch pad for a detailed trip into all the layers of this stack, with detailed diagrams and explanations of each layer integrated into an overall understanding of how the GPRS service operates in practice. Provides descriptions of why procedures are specified and then clearly explains how the specifications work in practice Provides a layered view of the GPRS protocol and deals in detail with each layer separately Includes numerous acronyms and abbreviations accompanied b
