This textbook goes to the heart of telecommunications engineering by developing the underlying concepts and linking them to how system specifications are determined by standards bodies – and how systems are designed and implemented by equipment manufacturers. In this regard, the book is comprehensive in covering all important aspects of wireless networks. Tailored to undergraduate/graduate students and practicing engineers, this book presents the fundamental concepts in a concise manner, while retaining the rigor needed to truly understand wireless communications. Importantly, the book ties these developments to how these concepts are implemented in fielded systems, discussing the motivations behind the design choices made in 4G and 5G wireless communications. The book bridges the gap between theory and application, presenting key practical issues.
This textbook covers Radio Access Network (RAN) aspects of the modern cellular communication networks. Important radio frequency (RF) parameters like power flux density, electrical field, and various power definitions are introduced and their relationship to regulatory requirements and standards-based usage are covered in detail. Also, various RF impediments such as the noise figure, out of band emissions, and adjacent channel selectivity/adjacent channel leakage ratio and intermodulation products are introduced. The link budget, receiver sensitivity, channel models, and how they relate to 3GPP based systems are explained. Spectrum and RF characteristics of cellular networks are an important part of the book. Theoretical and practical developments related to multiple input multiple output (MIMO) systems are also treated within the first half of the textbook. In the last segment of the first half of the textbook, we introduce multicarrier transmission and set the basis for understanding the air interface used in modern cellular technologies.
Presents RF concepts, RAN protocols, and radio planning and optimization;
Bridges the gap between theoretical and application-driven textbooks on cellular radio access networks;
Includes a full suite of classroom materials including PowerPoint slides, a solutions manual, and tutorials.
