Covers Compatibility Issues

Book cover issues arising between the communication of different kind of networks using different set of communication protocols.

Different networks use different set of communicating protocols and that’s why they need special medium protocols that can be used to engage a communication between two different networks such as CDMA 2000 and WCDMA which are different in terms of protocols and are used in US and Europe respectively. The authors have provided all issues that may arise while communicating between such different networks.

Excellent Quality Call Flow Diagrams

Meaning of phrase “Picture is worth a thousand words” can be completely understood by viewing the call flow diagrams provided in the book which makes even difficult concepts very easy to be understood and grasped. Working of technology can be easily understood by such diagrams and the book has plenty of such excellent quality diagrams.
