CONTENIDO:

Overall, the book was have written for technical engineers who would like to explore options in the cellular industry. However, Chapters 1 and 2 are for executives and for anyone who would like to familiarize himself or herself with key concepts of the field. Chapter 3 describes the specification of cellular systems. The North American specification works in Canada, the United States, and Mexico, so a cellular phone will work anywhere in this territory because of the standardized specification. Chapter 4 introduces the point-to-point model I developed over the last 15 years. It can be used as a core to develop many design tools. Chapters 5 and 6 deal with cochannel interference problems, and Chapter 7 deals with noncochannel interference problems. Chapters 8 through 13 offer detailed material for engineers to solve problems concerning improved system performance. Chapter 14 describes the digital systems which may become the next-generation cellular systems, and presents many key issues in order to alert readers to possible future developments. Chapter 15 highlights some miscellaneous topics related to cellular systems. Much of my unpublished work is included in these 15 chapters.
