Description
Wireless Communications provides an authoritative overview of the principles and applications of mobile communication technology. Combining mathematical descriptions with intuitive explanations of the physical facts, the book provides an in-depth analysis of current treatment of the area, addressing both the traditional elements, such as Rayleigh fading, BER in flat fading channels, and equalization, and emerging topics such as multiuser detection in CDMA systems, MIMO systems, and cognitive radio. Divided into five parts, the book begins with a high level overview of wireless communications, followed by the various aspects of wireless propagation channels and antennas, wireless receivers, multiple access and advanced transceiver schemes, and concludes with standardized wireless systems.
