With the advent of IMT-2000, CDMA has emerged at the focal point of
interest in wireless communications. Now it has become impossible to discuss
wireless communications without knowing the CDMA technologies. There are
a number of books readily published on the CDMA technologies, but they are
mostly ...
This is a book on wireless communication. That usually means communica-
tion by radio, though ultrasound and infrared light are also used occasion-
ally. The term “wireless” has come to mean nonbroadcast communication,
usually between individuals who very often use portable or mobile equip-
ment. ...
n the first part of this book, we give an introduction to the basic applications of wireless com-
munications, as well as the technical problems inherent in this communication paradigm. After a
brief history of wireless, Chapter 1 describes the different types of wireless services, and works
out the ...
A wireless ad-hoc network is a wireless network deployed without any infrastructure. In
such a network, there is no access point or wireless router to forward messages among the
computing devices. Instead, these devices depend on the ad-hoc mode of their wireless net‐
work interface cards to commun ...
Thanks to the advances in micromachining fabrication technologies and significant
cost reduction due to mass production, miniature sensors of angular rate, or
gyroscopes, found their way into the everyday life of every user of modern gadgets,
such as smart phones, tablets or even wristwatches. Often ...
Since the original publication of Manual 74 in 1991, and the preceding
“Guidelines for Transmission Line Structural Loading” in 1984, the
understanding of structural loadings on transmission line structures has
broadened signifi cantly. However, improvements in computational capa-
bility have enab ...
Plug in Electric Vehicles (PEVs) use energy storages usually in the form of battery
banks that are designed to be recharged using utility grid power. One category of
PEVs are Electric Vehicles (EVs) without an internal-combustion (IC) engine
where the energy stored in the battery bank is the only so ...

Radio frequency identification (RFID) is a type of automatic identification systems
which has gained popularity in recent years for being fast and reliable in keeping
track of the individual objects. In RFID systems, contactless object identification
is achieved using radio signals without the need ...
