In the past few decades, a technological revolution has occurred that has changed
the way we live in dramatic ways. This technological revolution is the result of
the emergence and evolution of a wide variety of new wireless networking tech-
nologies. Now people using these technologies are able to ...
Orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) has been shown to be
an effective technique to combat multipath fading in wireless channels. It
has been and is going to be used in various wireless communication systems.
This book gives a comprehensive introduction on the theory and practice ...
Communication has been one of the deepest needs of the human race throughout recorded
history. It is essential to forming social unions, to educating the young, and to expressing a
myriad of emotions and needs. Good communication is central to a civilized society.
The various communication disciplin ...
Radio propagation measurements and channel modelling continue to be of fundamental importance
to radio system design. As new technology enables dynamic spectrum access and higher data rates,
radio propagation effects such as shadowing, the presence of multipath and frequency dispersion
are the limit ...
Part I provides a compact survey on classical stochastic geometry models. The basic models defined
in this part will be used and extended throughout the whole monograph, and in particular to SINR based
models. Note however that these classical stochastic models can be used in a variety of contexts w ...
The idea for this book was born during one of my project-related trips to the beautiful city
of Hangzhou in China, where in the role of Chief Architect I had to guide a team of very
young, very smart and extremely dedicated software developers and verification engineers.
Soon it became clear that as ...
The wide deployment of wireless networks and mobile technologies, along with the
significant increase in the number of mobile device users, have created a very strong
demand on various wireless-based, mobile-based software application systems and
enabling technologies. This not only provides many ne ...
Over many years, RF-MEMS have been a hot topic in research at the technology
and device level. In particular, various kinds of mechanical Si-MEMS resonators
and piezoelectric BAW (bulk acoustic wave) resonators have been developed. The
BAW technology has made its way to commercial products for passi ...
In this age of science and technology, the global economy has developed so much that our
lifestyles are now extremely modernized and developed. In some ways, modern society
seems to have reached the utmost state of advancement in various areas, including eco-
nomic development, science and technolog ...
Over the past few decades there has been an exponential growth in service robots
and smart home technologies, which has led to the development of exciting new
products in our daily lives. Service robots can be used to provide domestic aid for
the elderly and disabled, serving various functions rangi ...
