Description: The evolution of
cellular based mobile communication systems, from the first generation
(analogue) to the second generation (digital), has been made possible by
solving many technical issues along the way. Efforts to develop a global
standard for providing high-speed, high quality multimedia services have
crystallised in the form of the third generation (3G) systems under the IMT 200
standard.
The world's
first 3G system has been implemented by Japan based on the latest research
results and other countries are expected to follow from 2002 onwards. 3G
systems are expected to bring about radical socio-economic and cultural changes
that would affect people around the world.
This volume
reviews in detail the basic technologies applied to W-CDMA, a standard 3G
mobile communications technology. The focus is to explain in layman's language
the technologies that will play an important part in future developments, with
reference to the latest research results.
