Even as newer cellular technologies and standards emerge, many of the fundamental principles and the components of the cellular network remain the same. Presenting a simple yet comprehensive view of cellular communications technologies, Cellular Communications provides an end-to-end perspective of cellular operations, ranging from physical layer details to call set-up and from the radio network to the core network. This self-contained source for practitioners and students represents a comprehensive survey of the fundamentals of cellular communications and the landscape of commercially deployed 2G and 3G technologies and provides a glimpse of emerging 4G technologies.
Radio Resource Management in Cellular Systems is the first book to address the critical issue of radio resource management in emerging (i.e., third generation and beyond) wireless systems. This book presents novel approaches for the design of high performance handoff algorithms that exploit attractive features of several existing algorithms, provide adaptation to dynamic cellular environment, and allow systematic tradeoffs among different system characteristics. Efficient handoff algorithms cost-effectively enhance the capacity and quality of service (QoS) of cellular systems. A comprehensive foundation of handoff and related issues of cellular communications is given. Tutorial-type material on the general features of 3G and 3.5G wireless systems (including CDMA2000, UMTS, and 1xEV-DO) is provided. Key elements for the development of simulators to study handoff and overall RF performance of the integrated voice and data cellular systems (including those based on CDMA) are also described. Finally, the powerful design tools of neural networks and fuzzy logic are applied to wireless communications, so that the generic algorithm approaches proposed in the book can be applied to many other design and development areas. The simulation models described in the book represent a single source that provides information for the performance evaluation of systems from handoff and resource management perspectives. Radio Resource Management in Cellular Systems will prove a valuable resource for system designers and practicing engineers working on design and development of third generation (and beyond) wireless systems. It may also be used as a text for advanced-level courses in wireless communications and neural networks.
This guide to radio engineering covers every technique DSP and RF engineers need to build software radios for a wide variety of wireless systems using DSP techniques. Included are practical guidelines for choosing DSP microprocessors, and systematic, object-oriented software design techniques.
This expert volume in the Diagnostic Pathology series is an excellent point-of-care resource for practitioners at all levels of experience and training.

Fully revised and up- to- date, Ioachim's Lymph Node Pathology, 5th Edition, offers valuable guidance in the diagnostic interpretation of lymph node biopsies. Continuing the tradition of excellence established by Dr. Harry L. Ioachim, Dr. L. Jeffrey Medeiros of The University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center offers a comprehensive, clinically useful approach to all the various nonmalignant lesions, lymphomas, other neoplasms, and metastatic tumors in lymph nodes. Discussion of each pathologic entity includes definition, clinical syndrome, histopathology, immunopathology, molecular genetic findings, and differential diagnosis. In addition, chapters have a useful checklist for each entity.
