If you need to know about the ISDN, network syncronisation and non-advanced SS7 this book is the best. It is a shame though that the book does not cover SS7 user parts such as SCCP,TCAP and due to date of publication does not have BISUP, Etc. The book is extremely well written.

This book covers all standards used in the world in a very complete way. It describes all aspects of the digital technologies used in the telephony world. I have used it several times in the last weeks, while making some avaliation tests in ISUP and DSS1 and it was very useful!

This book is packed with ready to use information on SS7. Eversince I got hold of this book, I have used it on numerous occasions in my work. Though I bought it mainly for SS7, I found the chapters on network synchronization and timing truly revealing. Very few telecom engineers are aware of the significance of timing in telecom networks. I do not know of any text that treats this subject so convincingly. In conclusion, a great work.

This is a book with a strong focus on modern telecom networks. It has helped me achieve a good understanding of SS 7 - both the protocols and the network aspects. And herein lies the strength of the book - its stress on both the 'academic' and the 'practical'. I would recommned this book to all those who wish to obtain technical insight about mobile, ISDN and Intelligent networks - as SS 7 is at the core of all three. practical aspects.

A text that builds up the subject step by step. Of particular merit is the tutorials on all three subjects - SS7, ISDN and Synchronization. The main theme is rightly SS7 considering its significance in modern telecom networks. A good text both for students and professionals. More details should be provided on U-interface. Perhaps the author will include this in the Second edition.

This is a book of great value to all those who
wish to gain insight in international telecom
networks. More and more telecom companies
are looking for business globally in the wake of
deregulation in the telecom sector. By providing
detailed information on international standards, the
author addresses this important need. Countries
in the Asia-Pacific generally follow ITU_T
standards. These along with European and
American standards help provide the much needed
global view

I obtained this book about 2 weeks back and I am deeply impressed by the concise and lucid treatment of the subject matter.
The book covers the nuts and bolts of modern telecom networks. I am nor aware of any other book in the market that provides both theoretical and practical insights on network synchronization, SS 7 and ISDN. This is certainly a valuable contribution to the body of existing literature and should prove useful to both students and practising engineers. The author has
laid stress on standardization. Indeed in this era of liberalisation where telecom companies are looking for markets worldwide, an in-depth discussion on North-American, European and International standards in one place is immensely useful.
In short, a unique text providing valuable information

Here is a book of great merit on three important
aspects of digital telecom networks. The author has explained
the basic concepts in a lucid and concise manner and related them with
remarkable success to practical aspects. Thus, the book is a
valuable work of reference both for the students and practioners in telecommunications.
The choice of the subjects is unique and I have not come across any other book that recognizes and
tackles network synchronization, SS 7 and ISDN in a unified manner. The book considers the North
American, European and International standards. It is therefore useful to readers worldover. I feel that this a valuable addition to the body of literature in this important area

A book of high practical value for telecom engineers
It provides insights in the working of modern
telephone networks. The author has picked up
three important and closely inter-linked topics;
network synchronization, SS 7 and ISDN.
Basic concepts are lucidly explained. Practical
issues such as planning, implementation and
testing are covered in adequate detail. This
book should be useful to telecom students as
well as professionals. The book covers international,
European and North Amercan standards; thus it should
have worldwide appeal. In conclusion, a great
work
