Recenzje

'The authors treat the concept of space-time-frequency diversity, multi-input, multi-output (MIMO), and user-cooperation with a comprehensive and systematic approach to principal topics and hence make the book more than an introductory text. … [it] is particularly well suited for a one-semester advanced graduate course in electrical engineering … Liu, Sadek, Su and Kwasinski's book provides a … thorough treatment of material that is at the cutting edge of cooperative communication over wireless network, and its treatment of cooperative communication is … advanced. Overall, Cooperative Communications and Networking is an excellent, reader friendly book. … [it] will have a lasting impact upon those involved in cooperative communications research.'
