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 ...
The single-carrier frequency division multiple access (SC-FDMA)
system is a well-known system that has recently become a preferred
choice for mobile uplink channels. This is attributed to its advantages
such as the low peak-to-average power ratio (PAPR) and the use of
frequency domain equalizers. Lo ...
Since the first edition of the book was published, the field of modeling and simulation of
communication systems has grown and matured in many ways, and the use of simulation as a
day-to-day tool is now even more common practice. Many new modeling and simulation
approaches have been developed in the ...
Smart antennas involve processing of signals induced on an array of sensors such as
antennas, microphones, and hydrophones. They have applications in the areas of radar,
sonar, medical imaging, and communications.
Driven by the desire to boost the quality of service of wireless systems closer to that afforded
by wireline systems, space-time processing for multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO)
wireless communications research has drawn remarkable interest in recent years. Excit-
ing theoretical advances, compl ...
The use of mobile devices now surpasses that of traditional computers: wireless
users will hence soon be demanding the same rich multimedia services on their
mobile devices that they have on their desktop personal computers. In addition,
new services will be added, especially related with their mobi ...
In this updated and expanded edition of her excellent telecommunications primer,
Lili explains in just the right detail everything you need to know to become
fluent in this most important and fascinating industry. Besides including a
satisfying amount of expert technical detail, the book also dis ...
I love telecommunications. It is powerful and it empowers, with
far-reaching consequences. It has demonstrated the potential to transform
society and business, and the revolution has only just begun. With the invention
of the telephone, human communications and commerce were forever changed: Time ...
A mobile ad-hoc network (MANET) is formed by multiple moving nodes
equipped with wireless transceivers. The mobile nodes communicate with
each other through multi-hop wireless links, where every node can transmit
and receive information. Mobile ad-hoc networks have become increasingly
important in a ...
Rapid progress in information and communications technology (ICT) induces
improved and new telecommunications services and contributes greatly to society
in general and to vendors and network and service providers. In addition to existing
services such as telephony or leased line services, spread of ...
