This chapter introduces concepts on cooperating objects and wireless sensor net-
works that will be used in the following chapters. It also introduces the Embedded
WiSeNts Coordination Action. Finally, it presents an overview of the book and the
relations between the following chapters.
To meet the future demand for huge traffic volume of wireless data service, the research on the fifth generation
(5G) mobile communication systems has been undertaken in recent years. It is expected that the spectral and energy
efficiencies in 5G mobile communication systems should be ten-fold highe ...
The aim of this book is to give an integrated presentation of the
specifications for Long Term Evolution (LTE) and LTE Advanced radio
interfaces, so that the reader can gain an overview of their main
characteristics.
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 ...
Before delving into the details of orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM), relevant
background material must be presented first. The purpose of this chapter is to provide the necessary
building blocks for the development of OFDM principles. Included in this chapter are reviews of stochast ...
This book emphasis on multi-user MIMO communication.
It covers a collection of the major topics and issues
in multi-user MIMO systems.
Recent Trends in Multi-user MIMO Communications provides
a tutorial overview of the latest technologies and
research keys related to multi-user communication.
Reliable and accurate positioning and navigation is critical for a diverse set of emerging applications
calling for advanced signal-processing techniques. This book provides an overview of some of the
most recent research results in the field of signal processing for positioning and navigation, addr ...
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 ...
Welcome to the third volume of the book entitled Technologies for the Wireless Future, which
is produced by WWRF. The idea is to take the most important outputs from the working
groups and special-interest groups that compose the Forum and bring them together in a series
of one-volume surveys. The l ...
This book paves the path toward fourth generation (4G) mobile communica-
tion by introducing mobility in heterogeneous IP networks with both third
generation (3G) and wireless local area networks (WLANs), which is seen as
one of the central issues in the becoming 4G of telecommunications networks
an ...
