Fourth Generation (4G) wireless communication systems aim to allow peak data
rates in the range of 1 Gbps for nomadic access and 100 Mbps for vehicular mobil-
ity. 4G aims to support current and emergent multimedia services, such as mobile
TV, social networks and gaming, high-definition television a ...
In this book we focus on the basic signal processing that underlies current and
future ultra wideband systems. By looking at signal processing in this way we
hope this text will be useful even as UWB applications mature and change or
regulations regarding ultra wideband systems are modified. The cur ...
The use of optical free-space emissions to provide indoor wireless commu-
nications has been studied extensively since the pioneering work of Gfeller
and Bapst in 1979 [1]. These studies have been invariably interdisciplinary in-
volving such far flung areas such as optics design‚ indoor propagatio ...
This book is concerned with integrated circuits and systems for wireless and
mobile communications. Circuit techniques and implementation of reconfigurable
low-voltage and low-power single-chip CMOS transceivers for multiband and multi-
mode universal wireless communications are the focus of the boo ...
Wireless communications, together with its applications and underlying technologies, is
among today’s most active areas of technology development. The very rapid pace of im-
provements in both custom and programmable integrated circuits for signal processing ap-
plications has led to the justfiable ...
As we enter the next millennium, there are clear technological patterns. First, the
electronic industry continues to scale microelectronic structures to achieve faster
devices, new devices, or more per unit area. Secondly, electrostatic charge, electrostatic
discharge (ESD), electrical overstress (E ...
Microengineering and Microelectromechanical systems (MEMS) have very few
watertight definitions regarding their subjects and technologies. Microengineering
can be described as the techniques, technologies, and practices involved in the
realization of structures and devices with dimensions on the ord ...
This book is intended for researchers, teachers, and students willing to ex-
plore conceptual bridges between the fields of Automatic Control and Power
Electronics. The need to bring the two disciplines closer has been felt, for
many years, both by Power Electronics specialists and by Automatic Cont ...
This book is written for engineers involved in the operation, control, and
planning of electric power systems. In addition, the book provides information and
tools for researchers working in the fields of power system security and stability. The
book consists of two volumes. The first volume provide ...
This book deals with a very important problem in power system planning
for countries in which hydrogeneration accounts for the greatest part of the
system power production. During the past thirty years many techniques
have been developed to cope with the long-term opera ...
