Market_Desc: · Engineers specializing in wireless and mobile systems and product development· Students Special Features: · Author has high profile in the professional engineering community with extensive exposure through his journal writings, chairing, and conference presentations· All systems have been tested; review questions (and solutions) at the end of each chapter· This follow-on book covers 3G (1st book covered 2G) and shows how the all-IP core network can be developed and how applications can be created· Includes coverage of VoIP (Voice over Internet Protocol) and SIP (Session Initiation Protocol), the topic of another best-selling Wiley engineering book About The Book: This completely new book skips all radio aspects and focuses on the emerging all-IP core network and applications instead. Broadband wireless networks based on B3G and 4G have been intensively studied in the literature. On the other hand, the all-IP core network and applications that utilize broadband networks are seldom addressed. This book describes the mobile core network protocols and applications based on the 3GPP all-IP core network architecture. The book shows how the all-IP core network can be developed and how applications can be created.
