Mobile Telecommunications Protocols for Data Networks

Mobile users are demanding fast and efficient ubiquitousconnectivity supporting data applications. This connectivity has tobe provided by various different networks and protocols whichguarantee that mobile networks function efficiently, performingrouting and handoff for mobile users.
Hac proposes a comprehensive design for mobile communicationsincluding mobile agents, access networks, application protocols,ubiquitous connectivity, routing, and handoff. It covers the entirespectrum of lower and upper layer protocols to evaluate and designmodern mobile telecommunications systems. Furthermore, the aspectsof modern mobile telecommunications for applications, networking,and transmission are described.
For mobile users and data applications these are new networking andcommunications solutions, particularly for the local area networkenvironment.
* Describes the recent advances in mobile telecommunications, theirprotocols and management
* Covers hot topics such as mobile agents, access networks,wireless applications protocols, wireless LANs, architecture,routing and handoff
* Introduces and analyses architecture and design issues in mobilecommunications and networks
* Includes a section of questions/problems/answers after eachchapter
The book is written as a practical, easily accessible tutorial withmany figures and examples of existing protocols and architecturesmaking it essential reading for engineers, system engineers,researchers, managers, senior & graduate students.
