Overview

Get to grips with the principles and practice of signal processing used in mobile communications systems. Focusing particularly on speech, video, and modem signal processing, pioneering experts employ a detailed, top-down analytical approach to outline the network architectures and protocol structures of multiple generations of mobile communications systems, identify the logical ranges where media and radio signal processing occur, and analyze the procedures for capturing, compressing, transmitting, and presenting media. Chapters are uniquely structured to show the evolution of network architectures and technical elements between generations up to and including 5G, with an emphasis on maximizing service quality and network capacity through re-using existing infrastructure and technologies. Implementation examples and data taken from commercial networks provide an in-depth insight into the operation of real mobile communications systems, including GSM, cdma2000, W-CDMA, LTE, and LTE-A, making this a practical, hands-on guide for both practicing engineers and graduate students in wireless communications.

Advance praise: 'This impressive book provides an excellent comprehensive explanation of the principles and practices of media and radio signal processing in real mobile communications systems. It also wonderfully explains the evolution of signal processing operations and thereby gives the reader a deep insight into the challenges and how they were overcome.' Kari Jarvinen, Nokia Technologies Advance praise: 'With today's mobile user experience so influenced by multimedia services, providing a clear background on the fundamentals of the entire protocol stack, from the physical layer to the multimedia codecs, media handling, and immersive media, is an invaluable book for understanding today's mobile cellular systems. The authors' experience with the development of the protocols and standards of these systems provides unknown insights into the reason for their development that allows the reader to better understand these technologies.' Nikolai Leung, Qualcomm
