Crisp and Clearly Written Book This book about GSM is a very clearly written and yet concisely written. Its true that this book of such a small size cannot substitute for reading the standards. However for the purposes of getting a system point of view ,understanding the Access side protocol stack this book is very good. Especially the chapter on Physical Layer is so concise and yet covers almost everything you might want to know about Physical Layer. Highly recommended. | ||
A fantastic introduction to GSM I bought this book to enable me to "Hit the ground running" when starting a new assignment. Thanks to this book, I can beat Carl Lewis!!! This text is very readable, and in my oppinion is the definitive introduction to GSM. | ||
