Inhaltsangabe

Within the ITU (International Telecommunications Union), third generation mobile systems are called International Mobile Telephony 2000 (IMT 2000). All intelligent networking (IN) for telecommunications involves the concept of a distributed intelligence wherein a database is queried for information necessary for call processing. The reasons for deploying mobile IN technologies are to provide value-added capabilities for purposes such as cost reduction, improved service delivery, increased variety and quality of services, and rapid service creation and deployment.

Über die Autorin bzw. den Autor

Jonathan Blogh was awarded an MEng. degree with Distinction in Information Engineering from the University of Southampton, UK in 1997. In the same year he was also awarded the IEE Lord Lloyd of Kilgerran Memorial Prize for his interest in and commitment to mobile radio and RF engineering. Between 1997 and 2000 he conducted postgraduate research and in 2001 he earned a PhD in mobile communications at the University of Southampton, UK. His current areas of research include the networking aspects of FDD and TDD mode third generation mobile cellular networks. Currently he is with Radioscape, London, UK, working as a senior software engineer.

Lajos Hanzo (http://www-mobile.ecs.soton.ac.uk) received his degree in electronics in 1976 and his doctorate in 1983. During his 25-year career in telecommunications he has held various research and academic posts in Hungary, Germany and the UK. Since 1986 he has been with the Department of Electronics and Computer Science, University of Southampton, UK, where he holds the chair in telecommunications. He has co-authored eight books on mobile radio communications, published over 300 research papers, organised and chaired conference sessions, presented overview lectures and been awarded a number of distinctions. Currently he is managing an academic research team, working on a range of research projects in the field of wireless multimedia communications sponsored by industry, the Engineering and Physical Sciences Research Council (EPSRC) UK, the European IST Programme and the Mobile Virtual Centre of Excellence (VCE), UK. He is an enthusiastic supporter of industrial and academic liaison and he offers a range of industrial courses. He is also an IEEE Distinguished Lecturer.

Von der hinteren Coverseite

Third-Generation Systems and Intelligent Wireless Networking studies the network capacity gains that can be achieved with the advent of adaptive antenna arrays and adaptive modulation techniques in both FDMA / TDMA and CDMA based mobile cellular networks. The employment of adaptive antennas has numerous benefits and advantages. These include reducing the co-channel interference imposed on other system users, increasing the user capacity and the area spectral efficiency, improving the power efficiency, and reducing the number of handovers as well as transmission errors.

• Provides an overview of the various CDMA based 3G wireless standards, namely UTRA, IMT 2000 and cdma 2000
• Provides an introduction to near-instantaneously adaptive modulation for single- and multi-carrier modulation or OFDM, as well as CDMA
• Quantifies the service-related benefits of adaptive transceivers in wireless video telephony
• Studies the network performance gains using adaptive antenna arrays at the base station in an FDMA / TDMA cellular mobile network
• Presents the design of a combined power control and adaptive modulation assisted channel allocation algorithm and its performance in an FDMA / TDMA cellular mobile network
• Compares the performance of various UTRA soft-handover techniques, quantifies the network capacity and evaluates the network performance with the aid of adaptive antenna arrays

By providing an all-encompassing self-contained treatment of adaptive modulation, adaptive antennas and adaptive networking, this volume will inspire researchers, practising engineers and advanced students in the areas of wireless communications and networking. Above all, it endeavours to be an informative and stimulating read.
