Description

The Only Resource to Cover Wireless, Wireline, and OpticalNetworks in One Volume Mobile and stationary next-generation networks that access thephotonic core are destined to become as ubiquitous as traditionaltelephone networks. These networks must efficiently provideadequate network quality to multimedia applications with highbandwidth and strict quality-of-service requirements, as well asseamlessly integrate mobile and fixed architectures. Today'sengineering students must be properly prepared to meet thechallenges of next-generation network development anddeployment. Featuring contributions from top industrial experts and academicprofessors, this authoritative work provides a comprehensiveintroduction to next-generation networks. It explains wirelessnetworks such as wireless local area networks (WLAN), wirelesspersonal area networks (WPAN), wireless access, 3G/4G cellular, andRF transmission, as well as optical networks like long-haul andmetropolitan networks, optical fiber, photonic devices, and VLSIchips. Rather than focusing on heavy math or physical details, thisresource explores how the technology is being used. It describesaccess and transport network layer technologies while alsodiscussing the network and services aspects. Chapter coverage includes: Fiber–wireless networks: technologies, architectures, andfuture challenges Packet backhaul network Point-to-point microwave backhaul Fourth-generation broadband: paving the road to Gbit/s withcopper Dynamic bandwidth allocation in EPON and GPON Next-generation ethernet passive optical networks: 10G-EPON Power line communications and smart grids Signaling for multimedia conferencing in 4G: architecture,evaluation, and issues Self-coexistence and security in cognitive radio networks Mobile WiMAX UWB personal area networks—MIMO extensions Next-generation integrated metropolitan-access network:technology integration and wireless convergence Resilient burst ring: a novel technology for the next-generationmetropolitan area networks Filled with illustrations and practical examples from industry,this book will be invaluable to engineers and researchers inindustry and academia, as well as senior undergraduate and graduatestudents, marketing and management staff, photonics physicists, andchip designers.
