Sinopsis

Mobile systems - primarily cellular telephony - have been the fastest moving telecommunications development to date with a world-wide customer base that in the ten or so years to April 1996 reached 100 million and continues with a current growth rate of 60% per annum world-wide. Predictions suggest that the customer base will exceed 1 billion within the next ten years and that the saturation level is around 80% of any population. Faced with such statistics any book such as this can proffer little more than a snapshot of the activities and developments that are at present taking place within the mobile world. It can, however, reflect on some of the underlying principles that support the industry. The opening chapter offers a vision for the future of mobile communications - that of more mobile than fixed connections to the world’s telecommunica­ tions networks - one which, interestingly, pre-dates the emergence of the information superhighway. The Internet whose growth of computer networks has, in recent years, exceeded that of even mobile systems is demanding ever more bandwidth to support its multimedia applications and access for people on the move. The communications needs of the next century customer are the driv­ ers behind the convergence of computing and telecommunications networks, the mobile component of which will be realized as Third Generation Mobile Sys­ tems (fGMS).

Reseña del editor

This book provides an authoritative overview of current mobile systems, both cellular and cordless, and examines their evolution towards the next generation of systems. It focuses on the key issue of Radio Spectrum and its management and discusses important environmental and safety issues, addressing radio interference and the environmental impact of mobile base stations, as well as the alleged health hazards associated with the use of mobile phones. Satellite systems and the application of cellular techniques to aeronautical applications for the travelling customer are discussed, and the book ends with an exploration of the latest developments in the next generation of systems.
