Wideband Cdma for Third Generation Mobil

Brief Description: This book evaluates wideband CDMA as an effective third generation technology option, and gives a clear picture of the various wideband CDMA standardization activities currently underway worldwide. It compares a wide array of CDMA design techniques and examines how each affects system performance. The book also describes how third generation system applications will impact radio access system design. Publisher Marketing: This text evaluates wideband CDMA as an effective third generation technology option, giving a picture of the various wideband CDMA standardization activities underway worldwide in the late 1990s. The book compares a range of CDMA design techniques and examines how each affects system performance. It also describes how third generation system applications will impact radio access system design and compares and contrasts each major wideband CDMA standardization proposal currently on the table, including FRAMES wideband CDMA in Europe, Core-A in Japan, wideband IS-95 in the US, and wideband CDMA in Korea. It identifies and describes various air interface access schemes for third and fourth generation mobile communications systems; analyzes wideband CDMA performance in varying radio environments; and discusses the integration of the GSM core network with wideband CDMA.

Besides this, Prof. Parasad recently was awaded the Telenor's Research Award 2005. Telenor's Nordic research prize of NOK 250,000 has been awarded to Professor Ramjee Prasad at the University of Aalborg. He is awarded the prize for his impressive merits within the field of wireless and personal communications. Jon Fredrik Baksaas, CEO Telenor, introduced the winner at the Technoport conference in Trondheim 19 October. Each year Telenor selects a theme for the award in agreement with the international award committee. The subject for 2005 is "Enabling technologies and communication based value added services for the home, leisure and professional environments." Personalised services and universal access adapted to available terminals is a vision for the future development of the telecom industry. Dr. Liljana Gabrilovska was Prof. at Aalborg University and recently returned to Macedonia to head a research institute there.
