This study is a focused effort on elucidating the performance aspects of modern,
handheld wireless devices and associated mobile network services. Specifically addressed
thereof are: (i) Assessing the performance details on certain hardware sections of smart
handheld devices and (ii) determining the performance profile of market penetration
considerations vis-à-vis provisioning mobile networks. To meet the scope of this research,
the projected efforts are exercised in compiling relevant literature and deciding the said
hardware and technoeconomic performance issues. Hence, written in two parts, Part A is
devoted to hardware performance details of smart, handheld devices relevant to (a) delay
issues in PCB layouts; (b) crosstalk problems at the baseband level (audio/multimedia) using
EMI concepts and (c) ascertaining non-catastrophic EMP/EMI effects at the RF-sections so
as to implement protection strategies via compensating networks. Part B is concerned with the technoeconomics of wireless networks in supporting mobile (handheld devices).
Correspondingly, two market related considerations versus service performance details are
considered. The first one refers to deducing a relative performance index that includes
technology (mobile speed) details plus economics profiles of the users in the service area.
The second task refers to elucidating a performance index of such services in terms of
hedonic pricing heuristics.
The theoretical aspects of the test studies as above are supplemented with
experimental and/or simulation details as appropriate. Hence, the efficacy of performance
details are discussed in real-world applications.
Lastly, possible research items for future studies are identified as open-questions. / Includes bibliography. / Dissertation (Ph.D.)--Florida Atlantic University, 2015. / FAU Electronic Theses and Dissertations Collection
