During the past two decades, technological development related to telecommuni-
cation technologies has allowed organizations of all types and size to be able to de-
velop effective networking applications in support of information management. Fur-
thermore, telecommunication technologies combined wi ...
It is commonly accepted today that optical fiber communications have revolutionized
telecommunications. Indeed, dramatic changes have been induced in the way we interact
with our relatives, friends, and colleagues: we retrieve information, we entertain and
educate ourselves, we buy and sell, we orga ...
The telecommunications industry is undoubtedly in a period of radical change with
the advent of mobile broadband radio access and the rapid convergence of Internet
and mobile services. Some of these changes have been enabled by a fundamental
shift in the underlying technologies; mobile networks are ...
The next-generation wireless broadband technology is changing the way
we work, live, learn, and communicate through effective use of state-
of-the-art mobile broadband technology. The packet-data-based revolu-
tion started around 2000 with the introduction of 1x Evolved Data Only
(1xEV-DO) and 1x Ev ...
This book is intended to help electric power and telephone company
personnel and individuals interested in properly protecting critical tele
communications circuits and equipment located in high voltage (HV)
environments and to improve service reliability while maintaining safe
working conditions. ...
The third generation (3G) mobile communication system is the next big thing
in the world of mobile telecommunications. The first generation included
analog mobile phones [e.g., Total Access Communications Systems
(TACS), Nordic Mobile Telephone (NMT), and Advanced Mobile Phone
Service (AMPS)], and t ...
For nearly a hundred years telecommunications provided mainly voice services and very low speed
data (telegraph and telex). With the advent of the Internet, several data services became mainstream
in telecommunications; to the point that voice is becoming an accessory to IP-centric data networks.

This books presents the research work of COST 273 Towards Mobile Broadband Multimedia
Networks, hence, it reports on the work performed and on the results achieved within the project
by its participants. The material presented here corresponds to the results obtained in four years
of collaborative w ...
This is believed to be the first book that takes a view of nanotechnology from a
telecommunications and networking perspective. Nanotechnology refers to the manip-
ulation of materials at the atomic or molecular level. Nanotechnology is getting a lot
of attention of late not only in academic setting ...
