This book provides technical information about all aspects of 3GPP LTE. The areas
covered range from basic concepts to research-grade material, including future
directions. The book captures the current state of 3GPP LTE technology and serves
as a source of comprehensive reference material on this s ...
One traditional view of how wireless networks evolve is of a continuous, inevitable progres-
sion to higher link speeds, combined with greater mobility over wider areas. This standpoint
certainly captures the development from first and second generation cellular systems focused
on voice support, and ...
According to the statistics of the Federal Communications Commission
(FCC), temporal and geographical variations in the utilization of the as-
signed spectrum range from 15% to 85%. The limited available radio spec-
trum and the inefficiency in spectrum usage necessitate a new commu-
nication paradi ...
This introduction takes a visionary look at ideal cognitive radios (CRs) that inte-
grate advanced software-defined radios (SDR) with CR techniques to arrive at
radios that learn to help their user using computer vision, high-performance
speech understanding, global positioning system (GPS) navigati ...
Multiple-Input Multiple-Output (MIMO) systems have recently been the
subject of intensive consideration in modem wireless communications as they
offer the potential of providing high capacity, thus unleashing a wide range of
applications in the wireless domain. The main feature of MIMO systems is th ...
This work titled A Digital Phase Locked Loop based Signal and Symbol Recovery
System for Wireless Channel is intended to serve as a document covering funda-
mental concepts and application details related to the design of digital phase locked
loop (DPLL) and its importance in wireless communication. ...
Over the past ten years there has been a revolution in the devel-
opment and acceptance of mobile products. In that period, cel-
lular telephony and consumer electronics have moved from the
realm of science fiction to everyday reality. Much of that revolu-
tion is unremarkable – we use wireless, in ...
In the nineteenth century, scientists, mathematician, engineers and innovators started
investigating electromagnetism. The theory that underpins wireless communications was
formed by Maxwell. Early demonstrations took place by Hertz, Tesla and others. Marconi
demonstrated the first wireless transmis ...
Mobile multimedia communication is increasingly in demand because of the basic need to communi-
cate at any time, anywhere, using any technology. In addition, to voice communication, people have a
desire to access a range of other services that comprise multimedia elements—text, image, animation,
h ...
Mobile radio networks have risen in prominence over the last few years, primarily by the rise
in popularity of cellular phones. It is important to recognise however that mobile radio
technology fulfils a far wider range of applications that meet the demands of the modern
world. These include the net ...
