Features: This book includes: research progress and future development roadmap of the HSPA standard; the impact of HSPA on wireless networks, protocol structure, and the functions and interfaces of network elements, along with the wireless resource control state; HSPA physical layer specifications, wireless resource management, and performance; the two factors affecting user performance—data transmission rate and network latency; end-to-end performance of HSPA applications; the basic requirements of 3GPP for terminal radio frequency (RF) performance, as well as the new features introduced by the terminal after the adoption of HSDPA/HSUPA. This book is suitable for 3G R&D engineers, network planners, researchers, technical managers, regulatory personnel, and mobile application developers. The Chinese version of WCDMA for UMTS, WCDMA Technology and System Design, has achieved great success in the Chinese market and is highly recognized in the field of air interfaces for 3G cellular systems.
.. HSDPA/HSUPA for UMTS is another masterpiece by the authors of WCDMA for UMTS, Harri Holma and Antti Toskala: it comprehensively covers the latest content related to WCDMA high-speed packet access (HSPA). R5 and R6 standardized high-speed downlink packet access (HSDPA) and high-speed uplink packet access (HSUPA). The term HSPA, specifically referring to HSDPA and HSUPA, was designed as a key air interface technology for broadband code division multiple access (WCDMA), the main global 3G mobile communication system. It delves into 3GPP standards and system performance based on simulations and actual measurements. The book also explores the impact of HSDPA and HSUPA on network planning and algorithms, end-to-end performance, and the RF performance requirements for HSPA terminals.
