Finally -- a practical guide that explains the numerous RF engineering concepts and technical terms and shows you the reader how they link together into a system design or specific application. Dozens of practical examples and case studies help turn theory into ready-to-implement knowledge. Critical issues such as link budgets, modulation, antennas, filters, receivers, transmitters, communication sites, system design, and technology- specific design guidelines are expertly detailed. By providing the framework for putting together a network design and detailing the real-world factors that need to be considered, this book gives engineers the tools they need to succeed in the rapidly emerging wireless work environment.

*The first-out-of-the-gate reference on LMDS (Local Multipoint Distribution Services), the technology designed to carry voice, data, and video signals in two directions--ane which may soon overtake DSL, cable, as a broadband delivery solution. *Offers wireless telecom managers and engineers a start-to-finish look at LMDS services, network operation and management, and implementation--plus Network Design Guidelines. *Provides a clear picture of key issues and difficulties that arise in the initial stages of LMDS system design and deployment.

LMDS: Local Mutipoint Distribution Service

Smith and Gervelis' experience in industry is in evidence in this thorough and practical text to the wireless network industry. The text emphasizes application and is filled with examples and solutions from actual practice. Five platforms are covered: AMPS, IS-136, GSM/GPRS, CDMA, AND iDEN. Both the RF and network aspects of the engineering are described. With emphasis throughout on problem solving, the text moves from a description of the key systems including PCS, WLL, WAP, Bluetooth, VoIP to applications in radio engineering, wireless mobile radio technology, RF design guidelines, and system performance. Practical chapters are also included on billing and charging, revenue assurance, system documentation, network and RF planning, and organization and training.

Review "The Atlantic writer drafts a history of slavery in this country unlike anything you’ve read before.”―Entertainment Weekly“An important and timely book about race in America.”―Drew Faust, Harvard Magazine"Merging memoir, travelogue, and history, Smith fashions an affecting, often lyrical narrative of witness."―The New York Review of Books"In this exploration of the ways we talk about — and avoid talking about — slavery, Smith blends reportage and deep critical thinking to produce a work that interrogates both history and memory."―Kate Tuttle, Boston Globe“Raises questions that we must all address, without recourse to wishful thinking or the collective ignorance and willful denial that fuels white supremacy.” ―Martha Anne Toll, The Washington Post“Sketches an impressive and deeply affecting human cartography of America’s historical conscience…an extraordinary contribution to the way we understand ourselves.” ―Julian Lucas, New York Times Book Review"With careful research, scholarship, and perspective, Smith underscores a necessary truth: the imprint of slavery is unyieldingly present in contemporary America, and the stories of its legacy, of the enslaved people and their descendants, are everywhere."―TeenVogue“Clint Smith, in his new book “How the Word Is Passed,” has created something subtle and extraordinary.”―Christian Science Monitor"Part of what makes this book so brilliant is its bothandedness. It is both a searching historical work and a journalistic account of how these historic sites operate today. Its both carefully researched and lyrical. I mean Smith is a poet and the sentences in this book just are piercingly alive. And it’s both extremely personal—it is the author’s story—and extraordinarily sweeping. It amplifies lots of other voices. Past and present. Reading it I kept thinking about that great Alice Walker line ‘All History is Current’.”―John Green, New York Times bestselling author of The Anthropocene Reviewed“The summer’s most visionary work of nonfiction is this radical reckoning with slavery, as represented in the nation’s monuments, plantations, and landmarks.”―Adrienne Westenfeld, Esquire“The detail and depth of the storytelling is vivid and visceral, making history present and real. Equally commendable is the care and compassion shown to those Smith interviews — whether tour guides or fellow visitors in these many spaces. Due to his care as an interviewer, the responses Smith elicits are resonant and powerful. . . . Smith deftly connects the past, hiding in plain sight, with today's lingering effects.”―Hope Wabuke, NPR“This isn’t just a work of history, it’s an intimate, active exploration of how we’re still constructing and distorting our history.” ―Ron Charles, The Washington Post“Both an honoring and an exposé of slavery’s legacy in America and how this nation is built upon the experiences, blood, sweat and tears of the formerly enslaved.”―The Root“The power of an itinerant narrator—Smith journeys to Monticello, Angola Prison, Blandford Cemetery, and downtown Manhattan—is that it reveals slavery’s expansive, geographical legacy. Smith tells his stories with the soul of a poet and the heart of an educator."―The Millions“What [Smith] does, quite successfully, is show that we whitewash our history at our own risk. That history is literally still here, taking up acres of space, memorializing the past, and teaching us how we got to be where we are, and the way we are. Bury it now and it will only come calling later." ―USA Today Product Description Instant #1 New York Times Bestseller Winner of the National Book Critics Circle Award for NonfictionWinner of the Stowe Prize Winner of 2022 Hillman Prize for Book JournalismPEN America 2022 John Kenneth Galbraith Award for Nonfiction Finalist A New York Times 10 Best Books of 2021 A Time 10 Best Nonfiction Books of 2021 Named a Best Book of 2021 by The New York Times, The Washington Post, The Boston Globe, The Economist, Smithsonian, Esquir
