The telecommunications industry has seen a rapid boost within the last decade. New realities
and visions of functionalities in various telecommunications networks have brought forward the
concept of next-generation networks (NGNs). The competitions among operators for support-
ing various services, ...
This book presents, in a unitary and novel perspective, some of the research work
the authors have carried out over the last decade, along with several collaborators and
students. The roots of this book can be traced back to the design of adaptive sequence
detection algorithms for channels with para ...
This work titled A Digital Phase Locked Loop based Signal and Symbol Recovery
System for Wireless Channel is intended to serve as a document covering funda-
mental concepts and application details related to the design of digital phase locked
loop (DPLL) and its importance in wireless communication. ...
Optical communication technology has been extensively developed over the
last 50 years, since the proposed idea by Kao and Hockham [1]. However, only
during the last 15 years have the concepts of communication foundation, that
is, the modulation and demodulation techniques, been applied. This is pos ...
The continued reduction of integrated circuit feature sizes and
commensurate improvements in device performance are fueling the progress
to higher functionality and new application areas. For example, over the last
15 years, the performance of microprocessors has increased 1000 times.
Analog circuit ...
Wireless Fidelity (Wi-Fi) networks have become mainstream over the last few years. What
started out as cable replacement for static desktops in indoor networks has been extended
to fully mobile broadband applications involving moving vehicles, high-speed trains, and
even airplanes.
The telecommunications industry is undoubtedly in a period of radical change with
the advent of mobile broadband radio access and the rapid convergence of Internet
and mobile services. Some of these changes have been enabled by a fundamental
shift in the underlying technologies; mobile networks are ...
Free Space Optical Communication (FSOC) is an effective alternative technology to
meet the Next Generation Network (NGN) demands as well as highly secured (mili-
tary) communications. FSOC includes various advantages like last mile access, easy
installation, free of Electro Magnetic Interference (EM ...
Throughout the course of my work in multihop mobile ad hoc networks (MANET)
over the last several years, I reached the conclusion that mobility models and perfor-
mance metrics need to be treated in detail in designing these networks that are the
ultimatefrontierinwirelesscommunications. Awidevariet ...
This book is intended for the RF planners, to serve as a practical tool in their daily work
designing indoor radio distribution systems. It is not a complete book about all the deep
aspects and corners of GSM, DCS, UMTS and HSPA networks, or all the core network
systems. It is dedicated to the last ...
