Taking an in-depth look at the mobile communications ecosystem, this book covers the two key components, i.e., Network and End-User Devices, in detail. Within the network, the sub components of radio access network, transmission network, core networks, services and OSS are discussed; component level discussion also features antenna diversity and interference cancellation techniques for smart wireless devices.
The role of various standard development organizations and industry forums is highlighted throughout. The ecosystem is strengthened with the addition of the Technology Management (TM) component dealing mostly with the non-technical aspects of the underlying mobile communications industry. Various aspects of TM including technology development, innovation management, knowledge management and more are also presented.
Focuses on OFDM-based radio technologies such as LTE & WiMAX as well as MBWA (Mobile Broadband Wireless Access) Provides a vital addition to the momentum of EVDO and its migration towards LTE Emphasis on radio, core, operation, architectural and performance aspects of two next generation technologies - EPS and WiMAX Includes discussion of backhaul technologies and alternatives as well as issues faced by operators switching to 3G and Next Generation Mobile Networks Cutting-edge research on emerging Gigabit Ethernet Microwave Radios and Carrier Ethernet transport technologiesNext Generation Mobile Communications Ecosystem serves as a practical reference for telecom associated academia and industry to understanding mobile communications in a holistic manner, as well as assisting in preparing graduate students and fresh graduates for the marketplace by providing them with information not only on state-of-the-art technologies and standards but also on TM. By effectively focusing on the key domains of TM this book will further assist companies with improving their competitiveness in the long run. Importantly, it will provide students, engineers, researchers, technology managers and executives with extensive details on various emerging mobile wireless standards and technologies.

Next Generation Mobile Communications Ecosystem
Chapter One
Introduction
Mobile Communications is one of the most valuable innovations of the twentieth century. It started in the 1970s and became one of the most common forms of communications in the mid 2000s. Mobile wireless communications is continuously evolving and mobile phone is all set to become the Third Screens after TV and computer.
It is a single technology that enables voice communications like traditional landline, broadband data communications like DSL (Digital Subscriber Line), financial services like banks and infotainment like TV. The journey started with first generation analog systems and moved to second generation digital telephony with GSM (Global System for Mobile Communications), USDC (US Digital Cellular), CDMAOne (Code Division Multiple Access) and PDC (Pacific Digital Cellular) systems. The journey continued with the migration to third generation (3G) systems in the early 2000s. The three 3G standards are CDMA2000, TD-SCDMA (Time Division – Synchronous CDMA) and UMTS (Universal Mobile Telecommunications Systems).
Contrary to what is stated by many industry players both EPS (Evolved Packet System) and WiMAX (Worldwide Interoperability for Microwave Access) are part of ITU (International Telecommunications Union) IMT-2000 (International Mobile Telecommunications) framework and are not 4G technologies. IMT-2000 is a framework from the ITU for 3G wireless phone standards throughout the world that deliver high-speed multimedia data as well as voice. EPS is an evolution of UMTS systems while WiMAX is a new technology and both can be considered as the last leg to 4G.
Nevertheless the evolution is
