Product Benefits: - systems-level approach will benefit today's technicians, who will evaluate system operations and possible reconfigurations of hardware/system functions more often than they perform repairs
- topics include both major cellular wireless technologies such as global system for mobile communications (GSM) and code division multiple access (CDMA), 3G cellular, as well as the technical aspects of the air interface
- comprehensive coverage of all IEEE standards-based wireless network technologies, such as Bluetooth, local area networks (LANs), personal area networks (PANs), and metropolitan area networks (MANs)
- useful learning aids, such as acronyms, abbreviations, and glossary give readers a quick reference for basic terms
