Preface.- Introduction.- LTE and Beyond.- Brazilian Telecommunications Regulatory Framework and the Impacts on the Development of Broadband Radio Access Systems.- Dual-Polarized Crossed Dipole Antenna Array for LTE Base Station.- Evaluation of the LTE 450 MHz system performance with different terminal antennas.- Wavelet-based Narrowband Interference Suppression in Long Term Evolution Physical Channels.- Link adaptation in LTE systems.- Method and test environment for the validation of Random Access Channel for Long Term Evolution Systems in 450 MHz.- Experimental Assessment of Voice over IP in LTE Systems under Different Cell Conditions.- Integration between LTE and satellite networks.- Glossary.
This book focus on Long Term Evolution (LTE) and beyond. The chapters describe different aspects of research and development in LTE, LTE-Advanced (4G systems) and LTE-450 MHz such as telecommunications regulatory framework, voice over LTE, link adaptation, power control, interference mitigation mechanisms, performance evaluation for different types of antennas, cognitive mesh network, integration of LTE network and satellite, test environment, power amplifiers and so on. It is useful for researchers in the field of mobile communications.
