In recent years, the research and developments in the area of RF and microwave
technologies have progressed significantly due to the growing demand for applica-
bility in wireless communication technologies. Starting from 1992, wireless com-
munication technologies have become quite mature. In the m ...
Modeling and simulation of nonlinear systems provide communication system designers
with a tool to predict and verify overall system performance under nonlinearity and
complex communication signals. Traditionally, RF system designers use deterministic
signals (discrete tones), which can be implement ...
Before delving into the details of orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM), relevant
background material must be presented first. The purpose of this chapter is to provide the necessary
building blocks for the development of OFDM principles. Included in this chapter are reviews of stochast ...
Performance analysis belongs to the domain of applied mathematics. The
major domain of application in this book concerns telecommunications sys-
tems and networks. We will mainly use stochastic analysis and probability
theory to address problems in the performance evaluation of telecommuni-
cations ...
The goal of this book is to provide a concise but lucid explanation and deriva-
tion of the fundamentals of spread-spectrum communication systems. Although
spread-spectrum communication is a staple topic in textbooks on digital com-
munication, its treatment is usually cursory, and the subject warra ...
Wireless means different things to different people. For this book, it refers
to the radio systems that provide point-to-point, point-to-multipoint, and
Earth-space communications over transmission links that propagate outside
buildings through the lower atmosphere. Wireless systems are being built
...

Spread-spectrum communication is a core area within the field of digital
communication. Originally used in military networks as countermeasures against
the threats of jamming and interception, spread-spectrum systems are now widely
used in commercial applications and are part of several wireless and ...
The information age is exploding around us,
giving us access to dizzying amounts of data the instant it becomes available.
Smart phones and tablets provide an untethered experience that offers stream-
ing video, audio, and other media formats to just about any place on the planet.
Even people who ar ...
Two of the major developments reshaping the telecommunications landscape are
mobile wireless connectivity and the migration of voice telephone services to IP
technology. Those two ideas come together in networks that carry voice services
over a wireless LAN (VoWLAN). The purpose of this text is to p ...
