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 ...

Performance analysis belongs to the domain of applied mathematics. The major domain of application in this book concerns telecommunications sys- tems and networks. We will mainly use stochastic analysis and probability theory to address problems in the performance evaluation of telecommuni- cations ...

This book stems from its ancestor Digital Transmission Theory,published by  Prentice-Hall in 1987 and now out of print. Following the suggestion of several colleagues who complained about the unavailability of a textbook they liked and adopted in their courses, laying a strong emphasis on ...

This edition updates and continues the series of books based on the residential courses on radiowave propagation organised by the IEE/IET. The first course was held in 1974, with lectures by H. Page, P. Matthews, D. Parsons, M.W. Gough, P.A. Watson, E. Hickin, T. Pratt, P. Knight, T.B. Jones, P.A. B ...

It is more than a decade since GSM was first commercially available. After some unexpected delay, it seems that finally UMTS is here to stay as a 3G system standardised by 3GPP, at least for another ten years. UMTS will enable multi-service, multi-rate and flexible IP native-based mobile technologie ...

Mobile and wireless communication systems are a prominent communications technology of the twenty-first century with profound economic and social impacts in practically all parts of the world. The current state of wireless communication systems allows for a much wider scope of applications than what ...

The first gem of wisdom I ever acquired about consulting, obtained many years ago from a former schoolmate, was to ensure that everything is plugged in: no continuity, no data. Wires carry voltages and currents from one place to another. Their behavior is reasonably simple and predictable—at least ...

The unguided transmission of information using electromagnetic waves at radio frequency (RF) is often referred to as wireless communications, the first demonstration of which took place at the end of the 19th cen- tury and is attributed to Hertz. The technology was, shortly thereafter, commercialise ...

The market for cellular phones and wireless data transmission equipment has changed dramatically since the late 1970s when cellular phones were first introduced and the late 1980s when wireless data equipment became available. As would be expected, duringthistime RF test requirements and RF test equ ...

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 ...
