Best books of 2009?
Wednesday, December 16, 2009 at 5:09PM What are the best telecom, datacom and business practice books you have read this year and why? Please send a comment.
Books I'd highlight this year are:
- The Nature of Technology by W Brian Arthur. A look at what technology is and how it advances. This is full of original thinking.
If you want to understand the latest cellular standards - the air interfaces and networking technologies - here are two recommended titles:
- 3G Evolution: HSPA and LTE for Mobile Broadband by Erik Dahlman, Stefan Parkvall, Johan Skold and Per Beming.
- LTE for UMTS: OFDMA and SC-FDMA based radio access by Harri Holma and Antti Toskala
The first title goes into more detail while the second is broader. As such the two are complementary. However, if only one title is to be chosen, it is 3G Evolution.
