Synopsis

A wireless communication engineer's guide to the universe of available technologies detailing systems which may become as standard as the cell phone. Sampei (communications engineering, Osaka U.) illustrates modulation/demodulation and synchronization techniques, FDMA, TDMA, and CDMA, multi-path fading compensation techniques, DSP-based signal processing algorithms, system and interface design, and error detection and control. The discussions also add a new volume to the currently small collection of English-language publications which deal with the Japanese standardized systems such as the PDC system and the personal handyphone system. Includes very detailed diagrams, charts, and code. Annotation c. by Book News, Inc., Portland, Or.

About this title

From the Back Cover

Get ready for the next generation in wireless communications: World-Wide Digital Multimedia.

These days it seems there's a cellular phone in every briefcase, but that's just the tip of the wireless iceberg. Constantly evolving technologies are making global radio subsystems more flexible and intelligent than ever, offering more powerful and wide-reaching wireless communications than ever before.

Get up to date on these hot new technologies with Applications of Digital Wireless Technologies to Global Wireless Communications. Written for practical implementation, and illustrated with hundreds of figures, this book covers:

* Modulation/demodulation and synchronization techniques
* FDMA, TDMA, and CDMA
* Multi-path fading compensation techniques
* DSP-based signal-processing algorithms
* System, receiver, and interface design
* Error detection and control.

This book's international scope and full coverage of emerging technologies make it must for engineers and communications specialists everywhere.
