ISBN-10: 1587050692
Reviewed: approx. mid-2003
Overall impression: Textbook; a very good, solid book for those that have little previous exposure to Broadband Wireless. Does a good job of the basics - antenna types and polarity, Fresnel Zone clearance, etc.
Pro's: Information presented is solid and detailed.
Con's: Largely limited to discussing use of 802.11 / Wi-Fi technology and doesn't discuss the (now) more popular proprietary systems used by Wireless ISPs. Information has become somewhat dated as Broadband Wireless technology has advanced.
