The third edition of the already popular line of Wireless Basics books explains how various wireless services work and their interconnection with traditional telephone networks. It is a well-known fact that wireless technology and services are continually changing. Author and industry veteran Harry E. Young understands these changes in the industry and provides descriptions and diagrams of typical interconnection arrangements for cellular, paging, PCS, land mobile radio, SMR and satellite systems. Literally thousands of people who need to understand how wireless works have found previous editions of this book to be extremely valuable. Wireless Basics, 3rd Edition provides details of the latest wireless technologies and systems. Some of the most important topics featured are: · An introduction to the latest wireless systems, their network parts and how they operate. · Regulatory changes as a result of the 1996 Telecommunications Act that has dramatically changed what services wireless systems can offer. · An overview of Third Generation (3G) wireless technologies. · What are the requirements for local number portability (LNP) and how systems must change to implement them. · How the North American (Telephone) Numbering Plan (NANP) is administered. · Gain an understanding of paging network architectures and how they are changing to compete with mobile telephone and wireless data service. · Why calling party pays (CPP) is important and how it is entering into the marketplace.· How wireless systems interconnect with the pubic telephone network and other networks such as the Internet. · What are the latest wireless developments in mobile satellite and air-to-ground aviation systems. · How land mobile radio (LMR) systems have evolved into digital specialized mobile radio (SMR) networks with more features than cellular and PCS services.

Harrelson, W. E.

This introductory book explains the operation of the signaling system 7 (SS7) system and how it controls and interacts with other telephone networks. SS7 is the standard communication system that is used to control public telephone networks. In addition to voice control, SS7 technology now offers advanced intelligent network features and it has recently been updated to include broadband control capabilities, local number portability, and mobile communication services. SS7 networks are now interconnecting with and operating on Internet data networks.  This book will help the reader gain an understanding of SS7 technology, network equipment, and overall operation. It covers the reasons why SS7 exists and is necessary, as well as step-by-step procedures that describe the actions that occur in the network. SS7 Basics, 2nd Edition is for the technical and the non-technical reader alike.  SS7 network architecture including SSP, SCP, and STP operations.  Call processing control (ISUP) and broadband telephony applications (BISUP).  Mobile application part (MAP).  Transaction capabilities part (TCAP).  Operations, Maintenance and Administration (OMAP).  SS7 interaction with voice over data networks including SIP, MGCP, MEGACO and H.323.  Transporting SS7 messages over IP networks using SIGTRAN and SCTP.  Number portability including local portability (LNP), service portability, and geographic portability.
