Cable and Wireless Networks Theory and Practice


This book presents a comprehensive approach to networking, cable and wireless communications, and networking security. It describes the most important state-of-the-art fundamentals and system details in the field, as well as many key aspects concerning the development and understanding of current and emergent services. Three of the author's earlier books, Transmission Techniques for Emergent Multicast and Broadcast Systems, Transmission Techniques for 4G systems, and MIMO Processing for 4G and Beyond: Fundamentals and Evolution, focused on the transition from 3G into 4G and 5G cellular systems, including the fundamentals of multi-input and multi-output (MIMO) systems, and there- fore, they spanned a wide range of topics. Another book by the author, Multimedia Communications and Networking, focused on networking. In this book, the author gathers in a single volume his point of view on current and emergent cable and wireless network services and technologies. Different bibliographic sources cover each one of these topics independently, without establishing the natural relationships between the topics. The advantage of the present work is twofold: on the one hand, it allows the reader to learn quickly, thereby helping the reader to master the topics covered, providing a deeper understanding of their interconnection; on the other hand, it collects in a single source the latest developments in the area, which are generally only within reach of an active researcher, such as the author, with a committed research career of several years and regular participation in conferences and international projects. Each chapter illustrates the theory of cable and wireless communications with relevant exam- ples, contains hands-on exercises suitable for readers with a BSc degree or an MSc degree in com- puter science or electrical engineering, and ends with review questions. This approach makes the book well suited for higher education students in courses such as networking, telecommunica- tions, mobile communications, and network security. Finally, the book serves as a good reference book for academic, institutional, or industrial professionals with technical responsibilities in plan- ning, design and development of networks, telecommunications and security systems, and mobile communications, as well as for Cisco CCNA and CCNP exam preparation.
