Synopsis

As the Internet becomes increasingly dominant, communications engineers must transition from traditional circuit-switched networks to IP-based packet-switched networks. In this book, globally respected telecommunications author Uyless Black presents all the packet-switched and digital technologies they need to understand. Black covers the Internet's architecture and key protocols; digital voice and video; and digitalization technologies such as Voice-over-IP and MPEG-2. He introduces new Layer 3 Switching technologies, covering all approaches, tag switching, label switching, and IP switching. He compares leading digital cellular technologies' infrastructure requirements, architectures, security, roaming, frequencies, capacity and interfaces. The book also covers increasingly important technologies such as IP Multicasting, IPv6, multi-service protocols (RSVP, RTP, RTCP), mobile IP, CIDR and PPP.

The complete engineer's guide to packet-switched Internet communications!

As the Internet revolutionizes telecommunications, network providers are transitioning from traditional circuit-switched networks to IP-based packet-switched networks. In this book, globally respected author Uyless Black introduces advanced Internet technology and the challenges of Internet communications from the unique perspective of the telecommunications professional.

Black covers the Internet's architecture, protocols, and traffic characteristics, and reviews the key issues involved in transforming the Internet from its data-only roots to a true multi-service network that can handle voice, video and multimedia with comparable quality and reliability. He covers every key IP protocol technology likely to play a major role in tomorrow's Internet, including:

  • Voice-over-IP
  • MPEG-2 and the H.32x series of multimedia
  • Layer 3 Switching, including both leading approaches-tag switching and IP switching
  • IPv6
  • IP multicasting protocols and systems, including IGMP and MBONE
  • Multi-service protocols, including RSVP, RTP and RTCP

Black presents detailed coverage of routing, route discovery and traffic integrity operations; as well as state-of-the-art techniques for minimizing packet delay. He also takes a detailed look at Mobile IP: where it stands as a solution for wireless Internet connectivity and where it's headed. Whether you're already involved in Internet service development, or you expect to be, Advanced Internet Technologies brings together all the information you need to succeed.
