Next Generation Wireless Systems and Networks Jul 2006
Next Generation Wireless Systems and Networks offers an expert view of cutting edge Beyond 3rd Generation (B3G) wireless applications. This self-contained reference combines the basics of wireless communications, such as 3G wireless standards, spread spectrum and CDMA systems, with a more advanced level research-oriented approach to B3G communications, eliminating the need to refer to other material.
This book will provide readers with the most up-to-date technological developments in wireless communication systems/networks and introduces the major 3G standards, such as W-CDMA, CDMA2000 and TD-SCDMA. It also includes a focus on cognitive radio technology and 3GPP E-UTRA technology; areas which have not been well covered elsewhere.
Covers many hot topics in the area of next generation wireless from the authors #161;¯ own research, including: Bluetooth, all-IP wireless networking, power-efficient and bandwidth-efficient air-link technologies, and multi-user signal processing in B3G wireless
Clear, step-by-step progression throughout the book will provide the reader with a thorough grounding in the basic topics before moving on to more advanced material
Addresses various important topics on wireless communication systems and networks that have emerged only very recently, such as Super-3G technology, 4G wireless, UWB, OFDMA and MIMO
Includes a wealth of explanatory tables and illustrations
This essential reference will prove invaluable to senior undergraduate and postgraduate students, academics and researchers. It will also be of interest to telecommunications engineers wishing to further their knowledge in this field. |

Home Wireless Networking in a Snap Mar 2006
These days, nobody really wants to learn everything there is about their hardware and software. And even if you did, who has the time to endlessly tinker and play with it until you figure everything out? You just want a book that will quickly show you how to set up your home wireless network. Home Wireless Networking in a Snap is designed specifically for busy people like you.
This book covers the things that aren't already covered in the documentation that came with your equipment and the things you can't just figure out on your own. It is organized into a series of well-organized, bite-sized, quickly accomplished tasks, that lets you zero right in on particular tasks you want to accomplish. This hands-on approach to setting-up a secure home wireless network will have your network up and running in no time. |

Technologies for the Wireless Future June 2006
Technologies for the Wireless Future, the result of pioneering cooperative work of many academic and industrial researchers from WWRF, provides a wide picture of the research challenges for the future wireless world. Despite much emphasis on hard technology, the user is certainly not forgotten as this book provides an all-encompassing treatment of future wireless technologies ranging from user centred design processes and I-centric communications to end-to-end econfigurability and short-range wireless networks. The content will have a wide-ranging appeal to engineers, researchers, managers and students with interest on future of wireless.
An important publication that highlights the significance of WWRF to the wireless industry. Rarely has one publication covered the whole spectrum of future wireless technologies from human sciences to radio interface technologies, highlighting the research work done both in academic and the business worlds. Tero Ojanper #228;, Senior Vice President, Head of Nokia Research Center
Provides an excellent overview about the future development of mobile and wireless communication. Starting from a user centric approach and the service infrastructure, a reference model and roadmaps are being built up. This book presents useful and necessary information to all, who are involved in research and development, strategy and standardisation activities towards future systems. Anton Schaaf, CTO and Member of the executive board Siemens COM
The WWRF should be commended for taking an approach that defines technology requirements from a user perspective. This publication makes an important contribution to defining the technologies that will be most relevant to future wireless communications. Padmasree Warrior, Senior Vice President, Chief Technology Officer Motorola |

Potential Security Vulnerabilities of a Wireless Network in a Military Healthcare Facility
The adaptation of wireless technology into the healthcare practitioner’s daily activities is changing the face of patient care every day. Doctors can now review any pertinent patient data from digital x-rays as they are taken, lab results as they are coded into the system and live patient vital statistic monitoring from their mobile PDA’s and Tablet PC’s at the point of care. Wireless technology adaptation has other benefits such as lowering long term cost of infrastructure maintenance and upgrades, and allowing for rapid changes to the network infrastructure versus wired technology. (Owens, Tachakra, Banitsas, Istepanian, 2001) As a system administrator in a large military healthcare facility, I am responsible for the security of all systems, network and patient data that is transmitted through that network. To keep up with the advanced implementations of wireless technology, understand the requirements I am bound by and the threats I may have to face, I started this research project for my own benefit as well as to share my findings with my staff. I will review the regulations that govern patient data in its electronic state, review a number of the current threats against a wireless network and recommend a possible wireless structure based on my research and policies that guide me. |
