The book is cooking together information about WLAN, 802.11, 802.16, Bluetooth, 802.15, GPRS, UMTS and so forth. It gives a rudimentary overview of mostly the MAC of each standard (and sometimes also PHY and some higher layer protocols), especially with respect to available QoS mechanisms.<p>Unfortu

โฆ Synopsis
From entertainment to telephony, emerging wireless systems will make possible a newgeneration of wireless multimedia applications. To satisfy users, network designers anddevelopers must integrate end-to-end Quality of Service (QoS) support throughout all theirunderlying networks: WANs, WLANs, WPANs, and "last-mile" WLL or satellite distributionsystems. However, wireless network standards typically focus on signaling, leaving crucial QoSissues to implementers. Multimedia Wireless Networks is the first book to help networkprofessionals systematically address QoS in today's most important wireless networks-andtomorrow's.l Why users' wireless multimedia performance requirements will require extensive QoSsupportl The fundamentals of QoS - and how they drive network designl WLAN standards from the multimedia network designer's viewpoint: IEEE 802.11,HiperLAN, and HomeRFl Wireless MANs: introducing the new 802.16 WirelessMAN standardl Integrating QoS into IEEE 802.15 and Bluetooth wireless personal area networksl QoS in current and emerging cellular and satellite networks"
