Telephone Switching Systems
Richard A. Thompson, Robert Bruce Thompson
Résumé
telephone service, including a look at architectures for future systems. Describing
the hardware and software of five different systems in detail, you get the
comprehensive information you need to understand switching systems in historical
context and in relation to regulatory frameworks. Plus, you see how factors such
as customer services and modern computer applications have affected switching
systems, and you get background discussions on relevant theory and boundary
conditions -- such as transmission systems, telephone operation, and the human
element.
Featuring extensive illustrations, but written in a
lightly technical style, this book is
an excellent resource that examines both analog and
digital systems to help you
understand the foundations upon which "voice over IP" are
built. Plus, it is
invaluable for telco managers -- both wireline and
cellular -- seeking the "big
picture" describing the physical architecture of modern
telephone switching
systems.
This complete volume is a one-stop resource for
telecommunications
professionals needing to know where the current
architecture comes from, how it
operates today, and how it will look tomorrow.
