The goal of wireless communications is to provide two-way voice and data communications, including Internet access, from anywhere to anyone. The underlying communication technologies are starting to appear and CDMA, GSM, DECT, and CDPD are the new industry standards claiming to have the answer for these services. This new book discusses all areas of this and future technology from a systems perspective.
