In the preparation of this book, our objective was to provide an advanced understanding of emerging
telecommunications systems, their significance, and the anticipated role these systems will play in the
future. With the help of our talented associated editors and contributors, we believe we have ac ...
This book is an entry-level text on the technology of telecommunications. It has been
crafted with the newcomer in mind. The twenty-one chapters of text have been prepared
for high-school graduates who understand algebra, logarithms, and the basic principles of
electricity such as Ohm’s law. Howeve ...
Fundamentals of WiMAX was consciously written to appeal to a broad audience, and to be of
value to anyone who is interested in the IEEE 802.16e standards or wireless broadband networks
more generally. The book contains cutting-edge tutorials on the technical and theoretical under-
pinnings to WiMAX ...
Our original effort in writing this book was to create a starting point for those in
the business community who did not have a high level of technical expertise but
needed to have some understanding of the technical functions of their information
and communication technologies (ICT) in a corporate e ...
With the rapid expansion of wireless consumer products,there has been a con-
siderable increase in the need for radio-frequency (RF) planning, link plan-
ning, and propagation modeling.A network designer with no RF background
may find himself/herself designing a wireless network. A wide array of RF

This books attempts to provide an extensive overview on Long-Term Evolution
(LTE) networks. Understanding LTE and its Performance is purposely written to
appeal to a broad audience and to be of value to anyone who is interested in 3GPP
LTE or wireless broadband networks more generally. The aim of th ...
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 ...
This book presents millimeter wave communication system design and analysis at the
level to produce an understanding of the interaction between a wireless system and its
front end so that the overall performance can be predicted. Gigabit wireless commu-
nications require a considerable amount of ban ...
When we started thinking about writing the first edition of this book a few years ago, we had been
working together for more than five years on the borderline between propagation and signal processing.
Therefore, it is not surprising that this book deals with propagation models and design tools for ...
