The book you’re holding, physically or electronically, is the result of a very interesting, challenging but also rewarding research project. The research was carried out in different contexts and cooperations but it was centered around the following question: how can we make the RF transmitters of ...

Cooperation has been the subject of intensive study in the social and biological sciences, as well as in mathematics and artificial intelligence. The fundamental finding is that even egoists can sustain cooperation provided the structure of their environment allows for repeated interactions (Axelrod ...

At the time of writing, and to an extent never seen before, there is an expectation that almost any information or service that is available through communication systems in the office or home will be available wherever the user happens to be. This is placing incredible demands on wireless communica ...

This book presents, in a unitary and novel perspective, some of the research work the authors have carried out over the last decade, along with several collaborators and students. The roots of this book can be traced back to the design of adaptive sequence detection algorithms for channels with para ...

The new digital radio system DAB (Digital Audio Broadcasting, nowadays often called Digital Radio) is a very innovative and universal multimedia broadcast system which will replace the existing AM and FM audio broadcast services in many parts of the world in the future. It was developed in the 1990s ...

This thesis is about wireless communication in shared radio spectrum. Its origin and motivation is ideally represented by the two quotations from above. In this thesis, the support of Quality-of-Service (QoS) in cognitive radio networks is analyzed. New approaches to distributed coordination of cogn ...

Wireless Fidelity (Wi-Fi) networks have become mainstream over the last few years. What started out as cable replacement for static desktops in indoor networks has been extended to fully mobile broadband applications involving moving vehicles, high-speed trains, and even airplanes. 

Following chapter introduces the mobile communication, gives a short history of wireless communication evolution, and highlights some application scenarios predestined for the use of mobile devices. Cellular and wireless based systems related to different generations of mobile communication, includi ...
