Description
Book SynopsisTrunked radio enables full-duplex radio communication using asingle transmission frequency, making the technique more efficientin handling radio traffic. Written by an expert in this area, thisbook presents a much-needed discussion of trunked radio technologyand its practical applications.
An Instructor Support FTP site is available from the Wileyeditorial department.
