In the last decade, digital wireless communications have turned from a niche market into one of the most important industries. There has been an enormous growth in knowledge about this field and it is vital for all of todays communications engineers to have a thorough knowledge of digital wireless communications. Most existing textbooks or self-study books in this area do not seem to provide comprehensive coverage of the relevant topics often related to the fact that they are up to five years old. Wireless Communications will provide a self-contained all encompassing current treatment of the area and topics covered will include directional channel modelling, multi-user detection, MIMO systems, and 3G standards. In addition, the author has combined mathematical derivations with intuitive explanations of the physical facts in order to help students (including self-study readers) to acquire a deeper understanding of the facts.
