PCS systems -- and the frequencies they will operate on -- are introduced and covered in detail. It also covers speech encoding, antennas and power issues, channel propagation in maritime environments, and much more. The book describes and compares first and second-generation analog and digital cellular standards. Readers also learn about the portion of the PCS spectrum recently set aside for unlicensed PCS, and understand the critical issues surrounding spectral efficiency -- comparing TDMA and CDMA technologies. For professional engineers and anyone in the communications industry interested in new PCS ap
See how Wal-Mart is using PCS to streamline inventory and restocking. Through case studies like these, you'll develop an in-depth understanding of both the business and technical issues surrounding leading-edge PCS implementations. PCS represents a revolution in communications. Personal Communications Systems Applications is the first comprehensive engineer's guide to PCS technology and applications. Learn how UPS is using hand-held PCS devices to register customers's signatures and transmit data back to a central computer virtually instantaneously. It will support extraordinary new applications--but engineers must learn entirely new techniques to take full advantage of it. If you're involved in PCS application design and development--or if you plan to be--Personal Communications Systems Applications will be your most essential sourcebook. 25587-7 The only complete guide to designing state-of-the-art PCS applications.
