Understanding Wireless: Digital Mobile, Cellular & PCS

Rating:
Summary: Lots of info - poor editing (if any)
Review: This book has a lot of info about several wireless technologies, and does a reasonable job of explaining the concepts and details. I read this book after having seen the movie (i.e., taken a class from the author on Wireless concepts), which made it easier to understand; i am not sure that a reader without that benefit would find it as useful. The spelling and grammar in the book is atrocious! The author, a very knowledgeable, engaging and humorous teacher, admitted in the class that he didn't pay much attention to all that in the book!

Summary: Poor book I never read
Review: This book is really rush work. There is a lot of information but it is very poorly explained. Even simple concepts are presented in a very complicated way. It looks as if the author took a presentation and cut&paste it into a book. I am sorry I had this book.
