With the continuation of EDGE standardization towards GERAN (GSM/EDGE Radio access network) EDGE will achieve a full alignment with W-CDMA. The goal for EDGE is to boost system capacity, both for real-time and best-effort services, and to become perfectly competitive with other 3G technologies.
What emerges with these evolutionary steps from GSM to GPRS, EDGE and W-CDMA is a seamless 3G UMTS (Universal Mobile Telecommunications System) Multi-Radio network ¡V one that maximizes the investments in GSM and GPRS.
It stands to reason that both EDGE and W-CDMA will be mainstream 3G UMTS products from Nordic companies. This book, written by engineers from one of those Nordic companies, is an authoritative treatise on GSM evolution to 3G. The book provides in depth performance analysis of current and future GSM speech and GPRS/EDGE packet data functionality. Furthermore, the concept of a 3G UMTS Multi-Radio network (GSM/EDGE/W-CDMA) is presented in depth as the best solution for wireless operators to evolve their networks towards 3G.
Times change, but some things don¡¦t. Nordic companies have been at the forefront of wireless communications for more than a half of a century. They have earned their preeminent position in the industry. I encourage you to listen what this book has to say.
Cellular operators must now roll out new 3G technologies capable of delivering wireless Internet based multimedia services in a competitive and cost-effective way and this volume, divided into three parts, helps to explain how:
ƒ{ Provides an introduction to the complete evolution of GSM towards a radio access network that efficiently supports UMTS services (GERAN). Both the functionality and architecture are explained and the integration of GERAN within the UMTS QoS concept for 3G networks is presented
ƒ{ Features a comprehensive study of system performance with simulations and field trials. Covers all the major features such as basic GSM, GPRS, EDGE and AMR and the full capability of the GERAN radio interface for 3G service support is envisaged. Also introduces an innovative approach for Radio Access Network automated planning, optimisation and operation. Discusses the automation of the frequency planning and parameter optimization tasks, together with an in-depth analysis of automated trouble shooting
ƒ{ Discusses different 3G radio technologies and the position of GERAN within such technologies. Also includes the potential evolution paths and descriptions of the 3G Multi-Radio Radio Access Network concept, based on the seamless integration of GSM and WCDMA radio technologies
Written by leading experts in the field, and endorsed with forewords from Mike Bamburak, Vice President, Technology, Architecture & Standards, AT&T and Chris Pearson, Executive Vice President, 3G Americas, this performance-oriented and practical approach to the GSM system and its evolution will have far-reaching appeal to Engineering Professionals and Research & Development Engineers. It will also be an instant hit with Technical staff and Management working for cellular operators.
