Publisher's Synopsis
Electrical Engineering / Telecommunications Engineering Networks for Synchronization, CCS 7, and ISDN Standards, Protocols, Planning, and Testing Practical and up to date, Engineering Networks for Synchronization, CCS 7, and ISDN focuses on three key elements of modern telecommunication networks: network synchronization, CCITT common channel signaling system no. 7 (CCS 7), and narrowband ISDN. ISDN cannot exist without CCS 7, and CCS 7 cannot exist without network synchronization. Until now, information on these three closely linked areas was scattered among sources, but this book provides a valuable one–stop guide to all these subjects. Key features of immediate relevance include:
- Coherent coverage of basic concepts
- In–depth treatment of CCS 7 and ISDN protocols
- Detailed practical guidelines on engineering and planning telecommunication networks for synchronization, CCS 7, and ISDN
- Comprehensive discussion on testing and validation
- Extensive coverage of international, North American, and European standards
- Timing in SONET and SDH
