Your understanding of wireless and mobile systems begins right here. Wireless and mobile communicaions is popular on university campuses because it's one of the hottest fields in business and industry. And this is the first wireless and mobile systems text written specifically for undergraduate and graduate students in computer science and engineering.
Authors Dharma P. Agrawal and Qing-An Zeng of the University of Cincinnati spare you from wading through a long history of the field, opting instead to introduce you right away to the basic whats, whys, and hows of this exciting technology. You'll learn the general principles of how wireless systems work and how mobility is supported. You'll gain clarity on the underlying infrastructure and the interactions that are needed among different functional components. You'll be encouraged to get a feel for system complexity by using ns, OPNET, or other stable simulators. What you won't get is overwhelmed by mathematical detail. Instead, you'll focus on qualitative descriptions and study just enough mathematics to help you appreciate its usefulness in wireless and mobile system applications.
