Systems Engineering in Wireless Communications (eBook)

This book provides the reader with a complete coverage of radio
resource management for 3G wireless communications



Systems Engineering in Wireless Communications focuses on
the area of radio resource management in third generation wireless
communication systems from a systems engineering perspective. The
authors provide an introduction into cellular radio systems as well
as a review of radio resource management issues. Additionally, a
detailed discussion of power control, handover, admission control,
smart antennas, joint optimization of different radio resources ,
and cognitive radio networksis offered. This book differs from
books currently available, with its emphasis on the dynamical
issues arising from mobile nodes in the network. Well-known control
techniques, such as least squares estimation, PID control, Kalman
filers, adaptive control, and fuzzy logic are used throughout the
book.

Key Features:

* Covers radio resource management of third generation wireless
communication systems at a systems level

* First book to address wireless communications issues using
systems engineering methods

* Offers the latest research activity in the field of wireless
communications, extending to the control engineering
community

* Includes an accompanying website containing
MATLAB(TM)/SIMULINK(TM) exercises

* Provides illustrations of wireless networks

This book will be a valuable reference for graduate and
postgraduate students studying wireless communications and control
engineering courses, and R&D engineers.
