Principles of Mobile Communication

Front Cover
Springer, May 30, 2017 - Technology & Engineering - 717 pages
This mathematically rigorous overview of physical layer wireless communications is now in a 4th, fully revised and updated edition. The new edition features new content on 4G cellular systems, 5G cellular outlook, bandpass signals and systems, and polarization, among many other topics, in addition to a new chapters on channel assignment techniques. Along with coverage of fundamentals and basic principles sufficient for novice students, the volume includes finer details that satisfy the requirements of graduate students aiming to conduct in-depth research. The book begins with a survey of the field, introducing issues relevant to wireless communications. The book moves on to cover relevant discrete subjects, from radio propagation, to error probability performance, and cellular radio resource management. An appendix provides a tutorial on probability and random processes. The content stresses core principles that are applicable to a broad range of wireless standards. New examples are provided throughout the book to better explain the more complex material to the reader. Additional problems have also been added to those already appearing at the ends of the chapters to make the book more suitable for course instruction.

About the author (2017)

Dr. Gordon L. Stüber received his Ph.D. in Electrical Engineering from the University of Waterloo, Ontario, Canada. In 1986, he joined the School of Electrical and Computer Engineering, Georgia Institute of Technology, where he is currently the Joseph M. Pettit Chair Professor. Dr. Stüber is author of the wireless textbook Principles of Mobile Communication, Kluwer Academic Publishers, 1996, 2/e 2001, 3/e 2011, 4/e 2017. In 2007, he received the IEEE Communications Society Wireless Communications Technical Committee Recognition Award (2007) “for outstanding technical contributions in the field and for service to the scientific and engineering communities.” He was an IEEE Communication Society Distinguished Lecturer (2007-2008) and IEEE Vehicular Technology Society Distinguished Lecturer (2010-2012). He is a past Editor for Spread Spectrum with the IEEE Transactions on Communications (1993-1998), and a past member of the IEEE Communications Society Awards Committee (1999-2002). He served as an elected Member-at-Large on the IEEE Communications Society Board of Governors (2007-2009), and is currently an elected member of the IEEE Vehicular Technology Society Board of Governors (2001-2003, 2004-2006, 2007-2009, 2010-2012, 2013-2015, 2016-2018). He received the IEEE Vehicular Technology Society Outstanding Service Award in 2005.
