Product Description
Focusing on the physical layer, Networking Fundamentalsprovides essential information on networking technologies that are usedin both wired and wireless networks designed for local area networks(LANs) and wide-area networks (WANs). The book starts with an overviewof telecommunications followed by four parts, each including severalchapters. Part I explains the principles of design and analysis ofinformation networks at the lowest layers. It concentrates on thecharacteristics of the transmission media, applied transmission andcoding, and medium access control. Parts II and III are devoted todetailed descriptions of important WANs and LANs respectively with PartII describing the wired Ethernet and Internet as well as cellularnetworks 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 sensornetworking. The partitioned structure of the book allows flexibility inteaching the material, encouraging the reader to grasp the more simpleconcepts and to build on these foundations when moving onto morecomplex information.Networking Fundamentals contains numerousillustrations, case studies and tables to supplement the text, as wellas exercises with solutions at the end of each chapter. There is also acompanion website with password protected solutions manual forinstructors along with other useful resources.

• Provides a unique holistic approach covering wireless communication technologies, wired technologies and networking
