Foreword from Arogyaswami Paulraj, Professor (Emeritus), Stanford University (USA)

• The first book to show how MIMO principles can be implemented in today’s mobile broadband networks and components
• Explains and solves some of the practical difficulties that arise in designing and implementing MIMO systems
• Both theory and implementation sections are written in the context of the most recent standards: IEEE 802.11n (WiFi); IEEE 802.16 (WIMAX); 4G networks (3GPP/3GPP2, LTE)
