This reference book shows the reader how to analyze jitter generations and accumulation more efficiently and provides guidance for designing transmission systems from the clock recovery viewpoint. This book presents the theory and technology behind digital transmission from three angles: line coding, waveform shaping and clock recovery. Also included is coverage of binary codes, multilevel codes and correlative codes. The text reviews the 3R functions of digital repeaters, and studies budget design based on an eye diagram showing amplitude and time crosshairs.

Presents the latest techniques with a view towards practical applications. The book delivers an analytical study of communication theory and other disciplines that have special relevance to secure communication systems and concentrates on principles, concepts and systems-level analyses.

Details an overall process that provides a logical and structured framework for the subject of transmission performance. This work bridges the gap between industry-oriented books and academic books. It delivers in-depth coverage on transmission performance with a broad industry perspective.

This book delivers information and analysis on fiber in the subscriber loop, and elucidates the competitive advantages to be gained by implementation. The book analyzes engineering, economic and policy issues involved in the deployment of residential fiber optics networks. The text includes a comparison between the telephone and cable television industries, addresses which services can be economically provided by a fiber network, predicts who is likely to deliver those services and describes the most efficient network architecture.

This text provides up-to-date information on today's networking technologies, traffic profiles, design and optimization approaches, and the strengths and weaknesses of various network design tools. The book presents an engineering approach for the design of local area networks and wide area data communications networks and offers guidance for purchasing decisions.

This work surveys the various switching technologies, shows how to evaluate the performance of ATM networks and enables the reader to implement teletraffic control via connection admission control (CAC) and other traffic control methods. The text introduces the non-parametric approach for CAC and dimensioning and offers the hybrid CAC as an alternative solution to traffic control.

This revised and updated book describes how to reduce costs, and covers the basic techniques, products and applications of the technology. It also gives information and access to over 400 organizations that provide services in the voice processing area.

Delivers a conceptual overview of call centres - the products that support them, the designs that make them work and the ongoing management that is required for their successful operation.

This work brings together a global overview of the technological and commercial issues associated with all cellular radio systems worldwide, both analogue and digital. It provides the tools to update any system, shows how to implement mobiles and base stations, and gives a thorough understanding of the of future expansion capability GSM has as a network.

Designed for information systems professionals, including IS, DP, MIS, LAN, and systems managers, this text provides a source of introductory information for those involved with decision-making processes related to information systems. Suitable as a University course text in MIS programs, the book also covers the subject in sufficient detail for the more technically orientated.
