The growing interest for high data rate wireless communications over the last few decades gave rise to the emergence of a number of wideband wireless systems. The resulting scarcity of frequency spectrum has been forcing wireless system designers to develop methods that will push the spectral effici ...

Wireless technology has been evolving at a breakneck speed. The total number of cell-phones in use (as of 2011) was over 6 billion for a 7 billion world population [1] constituting 87% of the world population. Additionally, with user convenience be- coming paramount, more and more functions are bein ...

OSCILLATORS are key building blocks in integrated transceivers. In wired and wireless communication terminals, the receiver front-end selects, amplifies and converts the desired high-frequency signal to baseband. At baseband the signal can then be converted into the digital domain for further data p ...

In order to improve the spectral efficiency in wireless communications, multiple antennas are employed at both transmitter and receiver sides, where the resulting system is referred to as the multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) system. In MIMO systems, it is usually requiredto detect signals joint ...

At the macroscopic level of system layout, the most important issue is path loss. In the older mobile radio systems that are limited by receiver noise, path loss determines SNR and the maximum coverage area. In cellular systems, where the limiting factor is cochannel interference, path loss determin ...

In recent years, the research and developments in the area of RF and microwave technologies have progressed significantly due to the growing demand for applica- bility in wireless communication technologies. Starting from 1992, wireless com- munication technologies have become quite mature. In the m ...

Many wireless communications channels consist of multiple signal paths from the transmitter to receiver. This multiplicity of paths leads to a phenomenon known as multipath fading. The multiple paths are caused by the presence of objects in the physical environment that, through the mechanisms of pr ...

All wireless communication standards, existing and under development, adopt or consider adopting orthogonal frequency-division multiplexing (OFDM) as the modulation technique. It is clear that OFDM has become the definitive modulation scheme in current and future wireless communication systems.

Software Radio (SR) is one of the most important emerging technologies for the future of wireless communication services. By moving radio functionality into software, it promises to give flexible radio systems that are multi-service, multi- standard, multi-band, reconfigurable and reprogrammable by ...

A wireless communication network can be viewed as a collection of nodes, located in some domain, which can in turn be transmitters or receivers (depending on the network considered, nodes may be mobile users, base stations in a cellular network, access points of a WiFi mesh etc.). At a given time, s ...
