Fordecades,microwavelineofsight(LOS)linkshavebeenoneofthebasictechnolo- gies used to build telephone networks. Until 1980, the fast rollout of high capacity transport networks and deployment of links in areas with challenging geographic characteristics could not be understood without this technology ...

Due to the asymmetry between the amount of data traffic in the downlink and uplink direction of nowadays and future wireless networks, a proper design of the transceivers in the broadcast channel is inevitable in order to satisfy the users’ demands on data rate and transmission quality. This book d ...

This book is exclusively dedicated to WiMAX. The focus of the book is on the applications of WiMAX networks, with delivery of multimedia content to wireless and mobile devices being the area of greatest atten- tion. WiMAX has crossed a number of major milestones in the recent past. 

There is a phenomenal burst of research activities in mobile cloud computing systems, which extends cloud computing functions, ser- vices, and results to the world of future mobile communications applications, and the paradigm of cloud computing and virtualization to mobile networks. Mobile applicat ...

Mobile multimedia communication is increasingly in demand because of the basic need to communi- cate at any time, anywhere, using any technology. In addition, to voice communication, people have a desire to access a range of other services that comprise multimedia elements—text, image, animation, h ...

Mobile radio networks have risen in prominence over the last few years, primarily by the rise in popularity of cellular phones. It is important to recognise however that mobile radio technology fulfils a far wider range of applications that meet the demands of the modern world. These include the net ...

Wireless metropolitan area networks (WirelessMANs) is emerging as a promising broadband wireless access (BWA) technology to provide high-speed, high bandwidth efficiency and high-capacity multimedia services for residential as well as enterprise applications. It is observed that WirelessMAN (e.g., W ...

The last decade proved to be hugely successful for the mobile communications industry, characterised by continued and rapid growth in demand, spurred on by new technological advances and innovative marketing techniques. Of course, when we refer to mobile commu- nications, we tend to implicitly refer ...

In general there are three different techniques for performance evaluation of systems and networks: mathematical analysis, measurements, and computer simulation. All these techniques have their strength and weaknesses. In the literature there are plenty of discussions about when to use which techniq ...

This paper covers the keynote address delivered by the Chairman of the COST Action 285 at the Symposium. It outlines the studies undertaken by the members of the Action with the objective of enhancing existing modeling and simulation tools and to develop new ones for research in emerging multiservic ...
