Fading and interference mitigation in wireless communications
1 online resource (xv, 237 pages) : illustrations
This book introduces the basic principles of digital communications performance analysis and its mathematical formalization. Coverage includes recent developments in the performance analysis of space diversity reception over fading channels, multichannel reception in various fading environments, influence of cochannel interference, macrodiversity reception when channels are simultaneously affected by various types of fading and shadowing, the unified method for computing the performance of digital communication systems characterized by a variety of modulation and detection types and channel models, and concepts of digital communication system design. The book includes many numerical illustrations of applications that correspond to practical systems. It presents a large collection of system performance curves to help researchers and system designers perform their own tradeoff studies. The presented collection of system performances will help the reader perform trade-off studies among the various communication type/drawback combinations in order to determine the optimal choice considering the available constraints. The concepts covered in this book can be useful across a range of applications, including wireless, satellite, terrestrial, and maritime communications.--Edited summary from book.
