Signaling in Telecommunication Networks, 2/e (Hardcover)
內容描述
Description
Guidance to help you grasp even the
most complex network structures and signaling protocols
The Second Edition of Signaling in Telecommunication Networks has
been thoroughly updated, offering new chapters and sections that cover the
most recent developments in signaling systems and procedures. This acclaimed
book covers subscriber and network signaling in both fixed and mobile
networks.
Coverage begins with an introduction to circuit-switched telephone
networks, including an examination of trunks, exchanges, access systems,
transmission systems, and other basic components. Next, the authors introduce
signaling concepts, beginning with older Channel Associated Signaling (CAS)
systems and progressing to today's Common Channel Signaling (CCS) systems. The
book then examines packet networks and their use in transmitting voice (VoIP),
TCP/IP protocols, VoIP signaling protocols, and ATM protocols.
Throughout the book, the authors emphasize functionality, particularly the
roles of individual protocols and how they fit in network architectures,
helping readers grasp even the most complex network structures and signaling
protocols. Highlights of the Second Edition include:
Coverage of the latest developments and topics, including new chapters
on access networks, intelligent network application part, signaling for
voice communication in packet networks, and ATM signaling
Drawings and tables that help readers understand and visualize complex
systems
Comprehensive, updated references for further study
Examples to help readers make the bridge from theory to application
With the continued growth and expansion of the telecommunications industry,
the Second Edition is essential reading for telecommunications students as
well as anyone involved in this dynamic industry needing a solid understanding
of the different signaling systems and how they work. Moreover, the book helps
readers wade through the voluminous and complex technical standards by
providing the essential structure, terminology, and functionality needed to
understand them.
