Opis

Motivated by the rapid evolution of the consecutive generations of wireless communication systems this volume continues to provide an overview of the majority of single- and multi-carrier QAM techniques. Now fully revised and updated, with more than 300 pages of new material, this new edition presents the wide range of recent developments in the field and places particular emphasis on the family of coded modulation aided OFDM and CDMA schemes. In addition, it also includes a fully revised chapter on adaptive modulation and a new chapter characterizing the design trade-offs of adaptive modulation and space-time coding. Divided into four parts: Part I: commences with a historical perspective and classic schemes for the uninitiated Part II: offers a deep discourse on adaptive QAM arrangements that have found their way also into the 3G system's High Speed Data Packet Access (HSDPA) mode Part III: details the advanced intricacies of adaptive versus space-time block- and trellis-coded OFDM and MC-CDMA Part IV: contains previously unpublished new research results. It commences with a theoretical chapter on the capacity of wireless channels. The discussions then continue by contriving sophisticated iterative coded modulation systems, such as TCM, TTCM, BICM, BICM-ID designed for turbo-detected QAM-based space-time coded OFDM and CDMA systems operating over wireless channels In summary, this volume amalgamates a comprehensive textbook with a deep research monograph on the topic of QAM, ensuring it has a wide-ranging appeal for both senior undergraduate and postgraduate students as well as practicing engineers and researchers.

O autorze

Lajos Hanzo, Fellow of the royal Academy of Engineering (FREng), received his Master degree in electronics in 1976 and his doctorate in 1983. In 2004 he was awarded the Doctor of Sciences (DSc) degree by the University Southampton, UK. During his 28–year career in telecommunications he has held various research and academic posts in Hungary, Germany and the UK. Since 1986 he has been with the Department of Electronics and Computer Science, University of Southampton, UK, where he holds the chair in telecommunications. He has co–authored 10 John Wiley/IEEE Press books totaling about 8000 pages on mobile radio communications, published in excess of 500 research papers, organised and chaired conference sessions, presented overview lectures and been awarded a number of distinctions. Currently he is managing an academic research team, working on a range of research projects in the field of wireless multimedia communications sponsored by industry, the Engineering and Physical Sciences Research council (EPSRC) UK, the European IST Programme and teh Mobile Virtual Centre of Excellence (VCE), UK. He is an enthusiastic supporter of industrial and academic liaison and he offers a range of industrial courses. Lajos is also an IEEE Distinguished Lecturer of both the Communications Society and the Vehicular Technology Society as well as a Fellow of both the IEEE and IEE.
