Ultra-Wideband Wireless Communications and Networks (eBook, PDF)

Redaktion: Shen, Xuemin; Le-Ngoc, Tho; Qiu, Robert Caiming; Guizani, Mohsen

• Format: PDF

Produktbeschreibung

Learn about Ultra-wideband (UWB) transmission - the most talked about application in wireless communications. UWB wireless communication is a revolutionary technology for transmitting large amounts of digital data over a wide spectrum of frequency bands with very low power for a short distance. This exciting new text covers the fundamental aspects of UWB wireless communications systems for short-range communications. It also focuses on more advanced information about networks and applications. Chapters include: Radio Propagation and Large Scale Variations, Pulse Propagation and Channel Modelling, MIMO (Multiple Input, Multiple Output) RF Subsystems and Ad Hoc Networks. * Focuses on UWB wireless communications rather than UWB radar, which has been covered before. * Provides long and short-term academic and technological value. * Teaches readers the fundamentals, challenges and up-to-date technical processes in this field.
