Research and Markets (http://www.researchandmarkets.com/reports/c25801) has announced the addition of Wireless Communications to their offering
In the last decade, digital wireless communications have turned from a niche market into one of the most important industries. There has been an enormous growth in knowledge about this
field and it is vital for all of todays communications engineers to have a thorough knowledge of digital wireless communications. Most existing textbooks or self-study books in this area
do not seem to provide comprehensive coverage of the relevant topics often related to the fact that they are up to five years old. Wireless Communications will provide a self-contained
all encompassing current treatment of the area and topics covered will include directional channel modelling, multi-user detection, MIMO systems, and 3G standards. In addition, the author
has combined mathematical derivations with intuitive explanations of the physical facts in order to help students (including self-study readers) to acquire a deeper understanding of the
facts.
Summary
Wireless Communications presents the most comprehensive coverage of this field which, in only a decade, has grown from a niche market into one of the most important industries. While
previous systems were generally intended to provide mobile speech communications, mobile data communications have since developed.
This essential textbook on the principles and applications of mobile radio is an all-encompassing current treatment of the area, addressing both the traditional elements, such as Rayleigh
fading, BER in flat fading channels, and equalization, and more recently emerging topics like multi-user detection in CDMA systems, OFDM and smart antennas. These fundamentals are related
to practical systems, and the dominant wireless standards, including cellular, cordless and wireless LANs, are discussed.
A comprehensive and current treatment of a very hot topic, one of the fastest growing fields of communications
Topics featured include: wireless propagation channels, transceivers and signal processing, multiple access and advanced transceiver schemes, and standardized wireless systems
Combines mathematical descriptions with intuitive explanations of the physical facts, to assist readers in acquiring a deeper understanding of the area.
Wireless Communications is an essential text for advanced undergraduate students with a working knowledge of standard digital communications, graduate students and practising engineers.
It will also be an invaluable source of reference for wireless communications engineers.
