It gives essential information about usage, architectures, functioning, planning, construction, measurements and optimization. The structure of the book is modular, giving both overall descriptions of the architectures and functionality of typical use cases, as well as deeper and practical guidelines for telecom professionals.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThe focus of the book is on current and future networks, and the most up-to-date functionalities of each network are described in sufficient detail for deployment purposes. The contents include an introduction to each technology, its evolution path, feasibility and utilization, solution and network architecture, and technical functioning of the systems (signaling, coding, different modes for channel delivery and security of core and radio system). The planning of the core and radio networks (system-specific field test measurement guidelines, hands-on network planning advices and suggestions for parameter adjustments) and future systems are also described.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eWith contributions from specialists in both industry and academia, the book bridges the gap between communications in the academic context and the practical knowledge and skills needed to work in the telecommunications industry.\u003c\/p\u003e Preface xxv \u003cp\u003eAcknowledgements xxvii\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eAbbreviations xxix\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eList of Contributors xlv\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003e1 Introduction 1\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eJyrki T.
