Synopsis
This book sets out to provide state-of-the art advice on Quality of Service (QoS) and Quality of Experience (QoE) in Universal Mobile Telecommunications (UMTS) networks. The approach is comprehensive, tackling mobile service planning, provisioning, performance monitoring and optimization issues in a single, accessible resource., This comprehensive volume provides state-of-the art guidance on Quality of Service (QoS) and Quality of end-user Experience (QoE) management in UMTS cellular systems, tackling planning, provisioning, monitoring and optimisation issues in a single accessible resource. In addition, a detailed discussion is provided on service applications, QoS concept, architecture and functions in access, packet & circuit switched core and backbone networks. Defines and explains the differences between QoS and QoE, and end-to-end concept, based on the premise that it is the end-user who is the ultimate beneficiary of QoS. Covers QoS and QoE issues related to present and forthcoming service applications, including multimedia messaging service (MMS), Video Sharing (VS), content download, business connectivity, Push to talk over Cellular (PoC), Voice over IP (VoIP), presence, instant messaging, gaming, streaming and browsing. Presents QoS concepts and architecture as defined in 3GPP Releases 97/98, 99, 5, 6, and 7, and provides a comprehensive description of protocols and packet data transfer across WCDMA evolved and (E)GPRS networks. Discusses service driven radio network planning aspects for (E)GPRS and WCDMA. Includes three detailed chapters covering concepts, means and methods for QoS provisioning, QoS & QoE performance monitoring and optimisation. This book is aimed at operators, vendors, deployers, consultants and managers specialising in the research, development, implementation, marketing and sales of products and tools for QoS and QoE management in UMTS networks. It will also be of interest to postgraduate students and researchers in the field of telecommunications and specialising in UMTS QoS and QoE principles and practices., This book is aimed at operators, vendors, deployers, consultants and managers specialising in the research, development, implementation, marketing and sales of products and tools for QoS and QoE management in UMTS networks. It will also be of interest to postgraduate students and researchers in the field of telecommunications and specialising in UMTS QoS and QoE principles and practices., Based on the Global System for Mobile (GSM) standard, UMTS, endorsed by major standards bodies and manufacturers, is the planned standard for mobile users around the world and is at present still being made available. Once UMTS is fully available geographically, computer and phone users can be constantly attached to the Internet as they roam, and have the same set of capabilities no matter where they travel. As researchers, developers and operators prepare for these advances, they need to have access to a resource providing cutting-edge advice on QoS and QoE management issues applied specifically to UMTS networks. This book sets out to provide state-of-the art advice on Quality of Service (QoS) and Quality of Experience (QoE) in Universal Mobile Telecommunications (UMTS) networks. The approach is comprehensive, tackling mobile service planning, provisioning, performance monitoring and optimization issues in a single, accessible resource. It includes strong sections on WCDMA QoS and QoE management functions in packet core and backbone networks. forthcoming application services, including multimedia messaging service (MMS), school-wide information system (SWIS), gaming, streaming and browsing. It illustrates all points with examples gleaned from state-of-the art research from around the globe. It is suitable for operators, vendors, deployers, consultants and managers specializing in the research and development of products and tools for QoS and QoE management in UMTS networks. It will also appeal to postgraduate students and researchers in the field of telecommunications and specializing in UMTS QoS and QoE principles and practice.

    Mistakenly ordered a paperback that I thought was a hardcover, not sellers fault; it was described properly on the listing. Seller still processed a refund the day I went to return the item and let me keep the item anyway. A+++ service. Book arrived quickly in great condition and for a great price. Thank you so much! Amazing seller!

    seller was communicative about my shipment, media mail took a while and tracking wasn't updated frequently, but seller communicated to me very quickly on status. the item came new and wrapped as described, though the packaging in it was packed wasn't sturdy and falling apart when it got to me.
