Mobile telephone service (MTS) is a type of service where mobile radio tele- phones connect people to the public switched telephone system (PSTN), to other mobile telephones or to other communication systems (such as to the Internet).

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 ...

Today, our everyday life is almost impossible to detach from the influence of wireless mobile communication technologies. This global trend is growing exponentially, and the mobile-only data traffic is expected to exceed stationary data traffic. However, for further development of mobile communicati ...
