Evolved Packet System (EPS): The LTE and SAE Evolution of 3G UMTS (Hardcover)

2G/GSM and 3G/UMTS are key mobile communication technologies, chosen by more than 2 billion people around the world. In order to adapt to new services, increasing demand for user bandwidth, quality of service and requirements for network convergence, major evolutions are introduced in 3G network standard.

Evolved Packet System (EPS) presents the EPS evolution of the 3G/UMTS standard introduced by the 3rd Generation Partnership Project (3GPP) standard committee. This new topic is looked at from a system perspective, from the radio interface to network and service architecture. Hundreds of documents being issued by Standard organisations are summarised in one book to allow the reader to get an accessible comprehensive view of EPS evolution.

• Proposes a system view of Evolved UMTS, from the radio to Core and service architecture

• Gives a comprehensive and global view of the system that technical specifications do not provide

• Describes the new system as well as the inheritance and migration from 2G/GSM and 3G/UMTS

• Written by experts in the field who specialise in two complementary but very different technical domains (i.e. "radio interface" and "network architecture")

• Contains many figures and examples for better understanding.

This book is essential for industry professionals in the telecommunication business, telecommunication system architects and designers, product manufacturers and operators and postgraduate students.

2G/GSM和3G/UMTS是全球超過20億人選擇的重要移動通信技術。為了適應新服務、不斷增長的用戶帶寬需求、服務質量和網絡融合的要求，3G網絡標準引入了重大改進。

《進化封包系統（EPS）》介紹了由第三代合作夥伴計劃（3GPP）標準委員會引入的3G/UMTS標準的EPS演進。本書從系統的角度來看待這個新主題，從無線接口到網絡和服務架構。數百份由標準組織發布的文件被總結在一本書中，讓讀者能夠獲得易於理解的全面EPS演進視圖。

• 提出了從無線到核心和服務架構的進化UMTS的系統視圖

• 提供了技術規範所未提供的全面而全球的系統視圖

• 描述了新系統以及從2G/GSM和3G/UMTS的繼承和遷移

• 由專門從事兩個互補但非常不同的技術領域（即“無線接口”和“網絡架構”）的專家撰寫

• 包含許多圖表和示例，以便更好地理解

這本書對於電信業專業人士、電信系統架構師和設計師、產品製造商和運營商以及研究生學生來說是必不可少的。
