    This book deals with switching, signaling and traffic in the context of telecommunication networks. Its coverage moves from an introduction to those networks through the evolution of switching systems from electromechanical systems to stored-program-controlled digital systems and future broadband systems. The treatment of Teletraffic Theory includes both lost-call and queuing systems.

    Salient Features

    • Modern digital networks
    • Modern digital switching systems
    • Packet switching
    • Common-channel signaling
    • Digital transmission, including Synchronous Digital Hierarchy
    • Integrated service digital network (ISDN)
    • Broadband networks including ATM
    The book fills the gap between texts in telecommunications that only treat networks in a cursory manner and advanced texts that are too specialized for undergraduates. It will therefore become important reading for final year undergraduates and M.Sc. students in departments of electrical and electronic engineering.
