System Design for Telecommunication Gateways provides a thorough introductionto designing telecommunication network equipment based on the latest hardwaredesigns and software methods available on the market. It reflects the changing hardware architecture in wireline and wireless networks today. The book describes the multiple software layers involved in programming paradigms and provides useful information on preferred ways to proceed, depending on the specificproject requirements. Multiple hardware processing options are also discussedwith recommendations on the available technologies. The book combines a rangeof topics in the system design concept, emphasizing the close relationship between different components and design choices. It covers the fundamental levels before proceeding to more complex topics, providing a comprehensive, well-balanced overview and guide to best practices in the design and development of modern gateway products for carrier-class telecommunications. System Design forTelecommunication Gateways shares the author's 25 years of experience in designing systems, based on state-of-the-art technologies. It provides practical tools to select some of these technologies in the short term, concentrating on the current approaches that will most probably dominate products for the next 10 years. Up until now, this information has been inaccessible outside the design centers of major telecoms suppliers such as Nokia Siemens Networks, Ericsson and Alcatel-Lucent. The book is intended to help designers of telecommunication equipment to make the right software and hardware choices while defining their next generation systems INDICE: Abbreviations.
