New research on technology
Kusal Epa, a Chartered Telecommunications Engineer by profession has
fulfilled a long felt need of many who are lost in a mass of
abbreviations of modern communication technology that most people find
hard to keep abreast of. Using simple easy to understand language the
author has brought explanations of technical jargon which affect most of
us and which can not unfortunately be ignored in a fast changing world.

On a quick reference I found all the explanations I needed. It not
only explains abbreviations used in communication technologies such as
3G, HSDPA, ADSL for the average person, but devotes a little time to
explain how things work. For instance what is CDMA is explained in easy
to understand language but for the student of telecommunications, the
author goes on to explain the different systems of CDMA.
In 34 chapters spread over 200 pages Kusal Epa has touched on
everything I could think of from Mobile Phone technology, to Analog,
Digital and Satellite Radio & Television technologies .
The older generation who did not grow up with the Internet will find
a refreshing reference manual in this book, where Internet and
communication systems are explained within your range of understanding.
Kusal Epa’s effort will be seen by many as a very satisfying venture
which should turn into a popular reference book for anyone wanting to
empower himself with a greater amount of modern communication related
technological information.
Modern Communication Technologies is a Stamford Lake publication and
is available at Lake House Bookshops.
