Future broadband wireless communication systems are expected to offer new and powerful services enabling fast transmission rates of several tens of Mbit/s. This is an ambitious challenge, especially for mobile communication systems, since these systems should be able to cope with several time dispersive channels associated with the signal multipath propagation. Moreover, these systems should have high spectral and power efficiencies as well as high capacity and flexibility. Spread spectrum techniques, particularly coded division multiple access (CDMA) techniques allow high capacity and...

Fourth Generation (4G) wireless communication systems support current and emergent multimedia services such as mobile TV, social networks and gaming, high-definition TV, video teleconferencing, and messaging services. These systems feature the All-over-IP concept and boast improved quality of service. Several important R&D activities are currently under way in the field of wireless communications for 4G systems, but the coverage is widespread in the literature. Transmission Techniques for 4G Systems presents a compilation of the latest...

This book presents a comprehensive overview of Unmanned Arial Vehicles (UAV) and their integration of wireless communications and networks, including inherent challenges and open access concerns. The authors present the latest technologies associated with UAV-assisted wireless communications and networks by linking their association with 5G Wireless Networks. The authors include positioning of UAV, coagulation attack of UAV, and the green prospective of UAV communication systems. The book explains how the UAV can be integrated with 5G wireless schemes such as ultra-reliable, low density...
