An Introduction to LTE: LTE, LTE-Advanced, SAE, VoLTE and 4G Mobile Communications

Description:

Following on from the successful first edition (March 2012), this book gives a clear explanation of what LTE does and how it works. The content is expressed at a systems level, offering readers the opportunity to grasp the key factors that make LTE the hot topic amongst vendors and operators across the globe. The book assumes no more than a basic knowledge of mobile telecommunication systems, and the reader is not expected to have any previous knowledge of the complex mathematical operations that underpin LTE.

This second edition introduces new material for the current state of the industry, such as the new features of LTE in Releases 11 and 12, notably coordinated multipoint transmission and proximity services; the main short- and long-term solutions for LTE voice calls, namely circuit switched fallback and the IP multimedia subsystem; and the evolution and current state of the LTE market. It also extends some of the material from the first edition, such as inter-operation with other technologies such as GSM, UMTS, wireless local area networks and cdma2000; additional features of LTE Advanced, notably heterogeneous networks and traffic offloading; data transport in the evolved packet core; coverage and capacity estimation for LTE; and a more rigorous treatment of modulation, demodulation and OFDMA. The author breaks down the system into logical blocks, by initially introducing the architecture of LTE, explaining the
techniques used for radio transmission and reception and the overall operation of the system, and concluding with more specialized topics such as LTE voice calls and the later releases of the specifications. This methodical approach enables readers to move on to tackle the specifications and the more advanced texts with confidence.

5.0 out of 5 stars Very Readable Book for a Non-Expert (no CPRI coverage)

W.C. · April 24, 2017

I'm not an LTE expert, but write software that bumps up against LTE, so I was looking for a book with good explanations for someone that isn't already up to their eyeballs in LTE acronyms. This book fit the bill. It has significantly more detail that I need, but is still sufficiently readable for my use. I see it in the bookshelves of most of my coworkers, as well.It must be a little bit dated (as are all four books I purchased, except for one), as I could find no references to recent developments, such as CPRI, in which I had a special interest. I found Kreher and Gaenger's "LTE Signalling: Troubleshooting and Performance Measurement", published in 2016, had quite a bit of CPRI-related coverage.

5.0 out of 5 stars Comprehensive and easy read intro to LTE.

N.I. · September 12, 2014

I only read the first chapter and browsed the rest. It covers most concepts of LTE and it seems to explain how protocols and methods work in enough detail for an engineer who has basic communications knowledge. There are a few charts would be better understandable with color use instead of grey scale.

4.0 out of 5 stars Good comprehensive overview

M.D.E. · February 3, 2016

Good read, others in my office have also been checking this out.

4.0 out of 5 stars At this time I think it is the best resource for late release LTE

A.カ. · December 23, 2014

This kind of book is not well fit to Kindle Paper white I think. The bad thing is that the figures and pictures in the book are not well designed for kindle.The contents should be good though.For non-technical people, better read this on paper print one and can be more understood.Good thing is that you can carry this contents in Kindle and you can read it anywhere. (The real book is much more heavy.)

Un buen libro sobre LTE

v.c. · May 30, 2016

Libro bastante completo sobre LTE. Aporta aspectos diversos, desde capa física (modulaciones, propagación, antenas, ...) hasta protocolos diversos (control de potencia, acceso aleatorio, gestión de recursos de radio). Otros aspectos bien tratados son los de seguridad, calidad de servicio, movilidad y gestión de sesiones. Interesante es la presentación del interworking con redes 3GPP y no 3 GPP. Finalmente el libro trata de LTE-A Release10-12 del 3GPP y también ofrece una extensa presentación de la funcionalidad del IPMS.

well written book

A.C. · October 25, 2022

Really enjoyed reading this book, clear and concise. Hope the author is planning to write a similar book for 5g.

Magnífico libro de cabecera para enteder los aspectos básicos del 4G LTE

n.d.b. · March 25, 2018

Interesante y completo libro para enteder los principios básicos (y no tan básicos) del 4G LTE. Se lee muy bien. Incluye descripciones técnicas, pero las justas. Incorpora la evolución desde 2G. Y analiza el futuro de IoT y 5G. En definitiva, un must para alguien en este sector.

Comprehensive and well-written

Very comprehensive and well-written. Not dumbed-down but complex areas are clearly signposted to keep readers on track.
