This book was released on 2003 with total page 490 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Annotation Offers you an in-depth understanding of the fundamental concepts underlying today?s most advanced wireless architectures, with a special emphasis on physical layer techniques and philosophies used in constructing interference-resistant wireless signals. You find in-depth coverage of a wide range of critical topics, including signal hardening, signal shaping techniques, signal expansion techniques, and active receiver concepts and techniques. A common theoretical framework is developed around the idea of a post-Shannon approach to designing communications systems. In many ways, modern wireless technology is pushing beyond the conventional limits of Claude Shannon?s celebrated communications theory. Topics like multipath fading and other channel phenomena are viewed in a new light no longer as simply unavoidable sources of degradation, but as potential resources for additional information and signal robustness.
