Recommended additional literature:
Anders Olsson,
"Understanding Changing Telecommunications: Building a Successful Telecom
Business", John Wiley & Sons, 2004.
Comment by Audestad:
“This book is recommended as
supplementary literature in this and several other courses in telematics, in
particular TTM4165 ICT,
Organisation and Market.
The book does not cover the curriculum of TTM4105 in sufficient detail to
be used as the only course literature: the compendium is intended for that
purpose.
The book is particularly valuable as an easy reference handbook for the
telecommunications engineer providing an excellent overview of the complete
telecommunications area. The book is concerned with the complex
interrelationship between terminals, technologies, networks, operations, and
business models with particular focus on IP and 3G. This is the first book I
have found that covers all these items in a single text.”
Telecommunications standards
The standardisation in all fields of telecommunications is done by the
International Telecommunications Union (ITU). All valid ITU standards
concerning the telecommunications network can be downloaded free of charge on
