New Directions in Wireless Communications Research

New Directions in Wireless Communications Research addresses critical issues in the design and performance analysis of current and future wireless system design. Intended for use by system designers and academic researchers, the contributions are by acknowledged international leaders in their field.

Topics covered include:

Characterization of wireless channels

The principles and challenges of OFDM

Low-correlation sequences for communications

Resource allocation in wireless systems

Signal processing for wireless systems, including iterative systems collaborative beamforming and interference rejection and network coding

Multi-user and multiple input-multiple output (MIMO) communications

Cooperative wireless networks, cognitive radio systems and coded bidirectional relaying in wireless networks

Fourth generation standards such as LTE and WiMax and standard proposals such as UMB


The volume will be an indispensable reference for all workers in the area of wireless system design.
