The Internet of Things is considered to be the next big opportunity, and challenge, for the Internet engineering community, users of technology, companies and society as a whole. It involves connecting embedded devices such as sensors, home appliances, weather stations and even toys to Internet Protocol (IP) based networks. The number of IP-enabled embedded devices is increasing rapidly, and Although hard to estimate, will surely outnumber the number of personal computers (PCs) and servers in the future. With the advances made over the past decade in microcontroller,low-power radio, battery and microelectronic technology, the trend in the industry is for smart embedded devices (called smart objects) to become IP-enabled, and an integral part of the latest services on the Internet. These services are no longer cyber, just including data created by humans, but are to become very connected to the physical world around us by including sensor data, the monitoring and control of machines, and other kinds of physical context. We call this latest frontier of the Internet, consisting of wireless low-power embedded devices, the Wireless Embedded Internet. Applications that this new frontier of the Internet enable are critical to the sustainability, efficiency and safety of society and include home and building automation, healthcare, energy efficiency, smart grids and environmental monitoring to name just a few.

A decade ago, I first wrote that people moved, and networks needed to adapt to the reality that people worked on the go. Of course, in those days, wireless LANs came with a trade-off. Yes, you could use them while moving, but you had to trade a great deal of throughput to get the mobility. Although it was possible to get bits anywhere, even while in motion, those bits came slower. As one of the network engineers I worked with put it, “We’ve installed switched gigabit Ethernet everywhere on campus, so I don’t understand why you’d want to go back to what is a 25-megabit hub.” He un- derestimated the allure of working on the go.

Communication between various devices makes it possible to pro- vide unique and innovative services. Although this interdevice com- munication is a very powerful mechanism, it is also a complex and clumsy mechanism, leading to a lot of complexity in present day systems. This not only makes networking difficult but also limits its flexibility.

LTE-Advanced becomes a truly global standard for 4G cellular communications. Relay, as one of the key technologies of LTE-Advanced, can significantly extend the coverage, and improve the system throughput. LTE-A standards and tech- nologies were described in several recent books where the limited pages for relay feature prevent the detailed explanations of the technology. In this book, we tried to provide an in-depth description of LTE-A relay development. More specifically, significant portions are spent on relay channel modeling and potential technologies during the study item phase of the development, Although some of those tech- nologies, such as Type 2 cooperative relay, multi-hop relay, relay with backhaul of carrier aggregation, were not standardized in Release 10 LTE.

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 to cellular systems, such as GSM. The plight of the mobile-satellite industry over the last decade, Although eventful, has, at times, been more akin to an out of control roller coaster ride.

Multi-carrier modulation‚ Orthogonal Frequency Division Multi- plexing (OFDM) particularly‚ has been successfully applied to a wide variety of digital communications applications over the past several years. Although OFDM has been chosen as the physical layer standard for a diversity of important systems‚ the theory‚ algorithms‚ and implementation techniques remain subjects of current interest. This is clear from the high volume of papers appearing in technical journals and conferences.

European Research Framework programs are public policy instruments designed to strengthen European competitiveness through cooperation. Although they have a fixed time frame, determined research themes, and a specific expected impact, the achievements in research and development (R&D) made by these funded proj- ects pave the way for a research continuum.

In the past few decades, a technological revolution has occurred that has changed the way we live in dramatic ways. This technological revolution is the result of the emergence and evolution of a wide variety of new wireless networking tech- nologies. Now people using these technologies are able to access the network and control many applications at will with their handheld devices anywhere, anytime. Although these technologies have made a long lasting impact in the revolution, it has also opened up various challenging issues which are yet to be resolved to make them more efficient and cost-effective.

Theartofcomputationofelectromagnetic(EM)problemshasgrownexponentially for three decades due to the availability of powerful computer resources. In spite of this, the EM community has suffered without a suitable text on the computational techniques commonly used in solving EM-related problems. Although there have been monographs on one particular technique or another, the monographs are written for the experts rather than students. Only a few texts cover the major techniques and dothatinamannersuitableforclassroomuse.Itseemsexpertsinthisareaarefamiliar with one or a few techniques but not many seem to be familiar with all the common techniques. This text attempts to fill that gap.
