_DESCRIPTION_:
Description
A comprehensive introduction to M2M Standards and systemsarchitecture, from concept to implementation
Focusing on the latest technological developments, M2MCommunications: A Systems Approach is an advanced introductionto this important and rapidly evolving topic. It provides asystems perspective on machine-to-machine services and the majortelecommunications relevant technologies. It provides a focus onthe latest standards currently in progress by ETSI and 3GPP, theleading standards entities in telecommunication networks andsolutions. The structure of the book is inspired by ongoingstandards developments and uses a systems-based approach fordescribing the problems which may be encountered when consideringM2M, as well as offering proposed solutions from the latestdevelopments in industry and standardization.
The authors provide comprehensive technical information on M2Marchitecture, protocols and applications, especially examining M2Mservice architecture, access and core network optimizations, andM2M area networks technologies. It also considersdominant M2M application domains such as Smart Metering, SmartGrid, and eHealth. Aimed as an advanced introduction to thiscomplex technical field, the book will provide an essentialend-to-end overview of M2M for professionals working in theindustry and advanced students.
