This book gives a comprehensive overview of the technologies for the advances of
mobile radio access networks. The topics covered include linear transmitters,
superconducting filters and cryogenic radio frequency (RF) front head, radio over
fiber, software radio base stations, mobile terminal positi ...
Multiuser multiple-input-multiple-output (MU-
MIMO) systems are known to be hindered by dimensionality
loss due to channel state information (CSI) acquisition overhead.
In this paper, we investigate user-scheduling in MU-MIMO
systems on account of CSI acquisition overhead, where a base
station dynam ...
Currently, the information and communications technology (ICT) industry sector
accounts for about 2–6% of the energy consumption worldwide, and a significant por-
tion of this is contributed by the wireless and mobile communications industry. With
the proliferation of wireless data applications, wi ...
To meet the future demand for huge traffic volume of wireless data service, the research on the fifth generation
(5G) mobile communication systems has been undertaken in recent years. It is expected that the spectral and energy
efficiencies in 5G mobile communication systems should be ten-fold highe ...
Nature is seldom kind. One of the most appealing uses for radio-
telephone systems—communication with people on the move—must over-
come radio transmission problems so difficult they challenge the imagina-
tion. A microwave radio signal transmitted between a fixed base station
and a moving vehicle ...
By definition, the term “mobile-radio communications” describes any
radio communication link between two terminals of which one or both
are in motion or halted at unspecified locations and of which one may
actually be a fixed terminal such as a base station. This definition
applies to both mobile- ...
In a cellular communication system, a service area or a geographical
region is divided into a number of cells, and each cell is served by an
infrastructure element called the base station through a radio interface.
Management of radio interface related resources is a critical design
component in cel ...
Commoditization is a serious threat to the telecommunications industry. Most CSPs offer
similar services at rates designed to win what has become a price war. As a result, many
face decreasing margins and difficulty sustaining differentiation based on prices or
products alone. On top of commoditizat ...
A wireless communication network can be viewed as a collection of nodes, located in some domain, which
can in turn be transmitters or receivers (depending on the network considered, nodes may be mobile users,
base stations in a cellular network, access points of a WiFi mesh etc.). At a given time, s ...
