Summary |
Annotation Internet and wireless technologies are converging towards an exciting future that we've only begun to realize. For professionals who have a background in the Internet or in mobile telephony -- but not in both -- this integrated "how it works" guide offers a practical understanding of wireless Internet communications, the technology components involved, and how they fit and work together. It provides a unified picture of important protocols for multimedia transport and session control, and explains what's being done to tackle tough challenges in QoS control, mobility management, and security in the wireless environment. With enhancements to the next generation of the Internet protocol expected to provide greater support for wireless IP networks, the next Internet revolution may be just around the corner. This book provides professionals with what they need to know about the techniques and architectures that will get us there. |
