Intensive development of digital technologies coincided in time with the beginning
of the new era in telecommunications. It made possible to formalize many proce-
dures of data exchange and to atomize some operations which made providing of

In this first part of the book the Vienna Link Level (LL) Simulators are described.
The first chapter provides basics of LL simulations, introduces the most common
variables and parameters as well as the transceiver structures that are applied in
Long-Term Evolution (LTE) and Long-Term Evolution-Adv ...
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 ...
Wireless Mesh Networks (WMN) are believed to be a highly promising
technology and will play an increasingly important role in future
generation wireless mobile networks. WMN is characterized by
dynamic self-organization, self-configuration and self-healing to
enable quick deployment, easy maintenanc ...
This chapter provides extensive coverage of existing mobile wireless technologies. Much of the
emphasis is on the highly anticipated 3G cellular networks and widely deployed wireless local
area networks (LANs), as the next-generation smart phones are likely to offer at least these two
types of conne ...
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 ...
The challenges associated with the design and implementation of Electro-
static Discharge (ESD) protection circuits become increasingly complex as
technology is scaled well into nano-metric regime. One must understand the
behavior of semiconductor devices under very high current densities, high
temp ...
Recent advancements in nanotechnology (NT) materials and growth of micro/
nanotechnology have opened the door for potential applications of microelectro-
mechanical systems (MEMS)- and NT-based sensors and devices. Such sensors and
devices are best suited for communications, medical diagnosis, comme ...
Since the 1990s the EU has been pursuing climate change mitigation targets. Following the
international commitment to the legally binding greenhouse gas reduction under the Kyoto
Protocol, the 2020 policy package consists of a set of binding legislation to ensure that the EU
meets its climate and en ...
