Description
Thoroughly revised and updated, the second edition of Goldsmith's Wireless Communications retains its unique balance of theory, design techniques, and analytical tools to provide readers with an unrivalled introduction to the core principles of wireless system design. Including over 80 worked examples and over 300 end-of-chapter problems, it is an ideal text for senior undergraduate and graduate-level study, and an invaluable reference for academics and professionals in wireless communications. This edition includes new discussion of key techniques and technologies including mm-Wave systems, massive MIMO, intelligent surfaces, LDPC and polar codes, turbo and deep learning equalization, full duplex systems, OTFS, NOMA, HetNets, and cloud radio access networks; an updated overview of state-of-the-art wireless systems and paradigms, including current cellular, Wi-Fi, satellite, and ad-hoc networks, fixed wireless access, cognitive radio, and underlay systems; refreshed coverage of the latest standards in cellular, Wi-Fi, and short-range networks; and over 25 new multi-part end-of-chapter problems.
