description: Outlines the architecture and operation of general packet radio service (GPRS) and high speed circuit switched data (HSCSD) for the next generation of mobile communications. The European authors review the principles of GSM and reveal how GPRS can be integrated into existing GSM networks, before providing specific technical details on the air interface in GPRS, mobility management, and the GPRS protocol stack. The final chapter addresses how HSCSD expands GSM data channels to multi-slot configurations by means of channel bundling. Annotation (c) Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
