Book Description
This book presents an overview of local access networks and discusses new emerging technologies. Underpinning much of the evolving communications technology is the local access itself, both in traditional form of copper pairs but increasingly too through the use of new fibre, radio and copper systems.

Book Description
Performance Analysis of Telecommunications and Local Area Networks presents information on teletraffic engineering, with emphasis on modeling techniques, queuing theory, and performance analysis for the public-switched telephone network and computer communication networks. Coverage includes twisted pair cables and coaxial cables, subscriber loops, multistage network switching, modeling techniques for traffic flow and service time, random access networks, and much more. End-of-chapter problems with solutions are also included. Performance Analysis of Telecommunications and Local Area Networks is also a useful reference for practicing engineers but is intended as a textbook in advanced- level courses.

Book Description
Focusing on the physical layer, Networking Fundamentals provides essential information on networking technologies that are used in both wired and wireless networks designed for local area networks (LANs) and wide-area networks (WANs). The book starts with an overview of telecommunications followed by four parts, each including several chapters. Part I explains the principles of design and analysis of information networks at the lowest layers. It concentrates on the characteristics of the transmission media, applied transmission and coding, and medium access control. Parts II and III are devoted to detailed descriptions of important WANs and LANs respectively with Part II describing the wired Ethernet and Internet as well as cellular networks while Part III covers popular wired LANs and wireless LANs (WLANs), as well as wireless personal area network (WPAN) technologies. Part IV concludes by examining security, localization and sensor networking. The partitioned structure of the book allows flexibility in teaching the material, encouraging the reader to grasp the more simple concepts and to build on these foundations when moving onto more complex information. Networking Fundamentals contains numerous illustrations, case studies and tables to supplement the text, as well as exercises with solutions at the end of each chapter. There is also a companion website with password protected solutions manual for instructors along with other useful resources. Provides a unique holistic approach covering wireless communication technologies, wired technologies and networking One of the first textbooks to integrate all aspects of information networks while placing an emphasis on the physical layer and systems engineering aspects Contains numerous illustrations, case studies and tables to supplement the text, as well as exercises with solutions at the end of each chapter Companion website with password protected solutions manual and other useful resources

Book Description
This book provides a broad introduction to all aspects of modern telecommunications networks, covering the principles of operation of the technology and the way that networks using this technology are structured. The main focus is on those technologies in use today and the next generation networks (NGN) and how they will be implemented.

Book Description
"This report is the culmination of the work of the Local Networlcs Convergence Committee. It includes the recommendations of the Committee's co-chairs for changes in government policy and regulation affecting the future evolution of the local telecommunications network infrastructure. The report and its recommendations take into account technological and economic developments that will lead to increasing convergence of the services and markets of telephone companies and cable operators. The report recommends a flexible policy and regulatory framework which relies on an increasingly competitive market place to develop an advanced cable and telephone infrastructure"--Executive summary, page v.

Book Description
The telecommunications industry has evolved into a very competitive industry since 1980. Aggressive competition is the norm in the long distance, equipment, operator services and many other segments of the industry. The remaining segment of the market without widespread meaningful competition is the "last-mile" wireline service to the customer premise. Incumbent local exchange carriers enjoy a monopoly to serve nearly all residences and most business customers, collecting over 99% of all local exchange service revenues. Using their monopoly status, incumbents have developed a cross-subsidy system which uses the rates paid by some customers to lower the rates paid by others to support a policy known as "universal service." This policy has resulted in telephone service reaching 94% of America's households. Carriers claim that this policy cost them $20 billion annually, potential entrants claim the true cost is as low as $4 billion and the rest is profit. In the Telecommunications Act of 1996, Congress ordered the end of the local exchange monopoly and opened the local markets to competition. Congress also specified the continuation of universal service, specified that telephone penetration should be increased and specified that the universal service concept will be applied to America's schools, libraries and rural health centers. Congress also specified that, unlike today, all carriers will contribute fairly and equitably fairly to the universal service fund and that all carriers providing local service, including new competitors, will be eligible to receive support from the fund. The cost to meet these requirements in a competitive environment totals $7.2 billion, or 5.1% of net carrier revenue. This thesis addresses the definition of universal service and the services that should be eligible for support, the new competitive environment, how to collect the universal service support fund, and how to best distribute the funds to customers targeted to receive support from the system: those in high-cost areas, low-income consumers, and schools and libraries for advanced communications services.

Book Description
This book describes the transformation of telecommunications from national network monopolies to a new system, the "network of networks," and the glue that holds it together, interconnection. By their very nature, monopoly-owned networks provided a small number of standardized, nationwide services. Over the past two decades, however, new forces in the world economy began to unravel this traditional system. The driving force behind the change was the shift toward an information-based economy. Especially for large organizations, the price, control, security, and reliability of telecommunications became variables requiring organized attention. Thus, monopoly began to give way to the "network of networks," the foundation of today's telecommunications and Internet infrastructure. Taking a broad, multidisciplinary perspective Eli Noam discusses the importance and history of interconnection policy, as well as recent policy reforms both within the United States and around the globe. Other important topics he discusses include interconnection prices, the unbundling of interconnection, and the technology of interconnection. He concludes with an examination of social and policy issues, including the free flow of content, universal service and privacy protection, and the future of telecommunications.
