Multicast in Third-Generation Mobile Networks (eBook, PDF)

Services, Mechanisms and Performance

• Format: PDF

Produktbeschreibung

A hands-on tutorial on multicast in third-generationnetworks! In this book, the authors describe how to perform multicast, theone-to-many delivery of data to a group of destinations, inthird-generation mobile networks. The authors provide an overview of the services that can berealized with multicast in third-generation networks, describe themechanisms required to support these services and highlight theperformance of several multicast mechanisms. The focus of this bookis on multicast in UMTS and CDMA2000 networks, the dominantthird-generation network standards. In addition to describing thestandards for multicast, the authors also provide extensiveperformance results of multicast in third-generation networks. Key Features: *Provides an in-depth review of the fundamentals ofmulticast *Describes in detail the MBMS and BCMCS standards formulticast in UMTS and CDMA2000 networks, respectively *Provides a comprehensive overview of the services thatcan be realized with multicast in third-generation networks *Highlights the performance of multicast inthird-generation networks *Investigates how multicast can be achieved inheterogeneous networks consisting of cellular and broadcastnetworks This book is an invaluable resource for professional engineersand researchers working in the area of third-generation networks.Postgraduate and graduate students on networking and communicationscourses will also find this book an insightful and valuablereference.
