Today, our everyday life is almost impossible to detach
from the influence of wireless mobile communication
technologies. This global trend is growing exponentially, and
the mobile-only data traffic is expected to exceed stationary
data traffic. However, for further development of mobile
communicati ...
This book is about multipoint cooperative communication, a key technology to
overcome the long-standing problem of limited transmission rate caused by inter-
point interference. However, the multipoint cooperative communication is not an
isolated technology. Instead, it covers a vast range of resear ...
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 ...
We are currently witnessing an increase in telecommunications norms and
standards given the recent advances in this domain. The increasing number of
normalized standards paves the way for an increase in the range of offers and
services available for each consumer. Moreover, the majority of available ...
Wireless communications and networking technology are advancing at a very rapid
pace. Newer technologies and standards are evolving to serve the ever-increasing num-
ber of users demanding different types of mobile applications and services. Research
and development activities on wireless technology ...
It is more than a decade since GSM was first commercially available. After some unexpected delay, it
seems that finally UMTS is here to stay as a 3G system standardised by 3GPP, at least for another ten
years. UMTS will enable multi-service, multi-rate and flexible IP native-based mobile technologie ...
Mobile and wireless communication systems are a prominent communications
technology of the twenty-first century with profound economic and social impacts
in practically all parts of the world. The current state of wireless communication
systems allows for a much wider scope of applications than what ...
The multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) technique provides higher bit rates
and better reliability in wireless systems. The efficient design of RF transceivers
has a vital impact on the implementation of this technique. This first book is com-
pletely devoted to RF transceiver design for MIMO comm ...
Radio frequency spectrum is a scarce and critical natural resource that is utilized for
many services including surveillance, navigation, communication, and broadcast-
ing. Recent years have seen tremendous growth in the use of spectrum especially by
commercial cellular operators. Ubiquitous use of ...
T
his book covers basic communications theory and practical imple-
mentation of transmitters and receivers. In so doing, I focus on dig-
ital modulation, demodulation methods, probabilities, detection of
digital signals, and spread spectrum system design and analysis. This book
was written for those ...
