MIMO-OFDM for LTE, WIFI and WIMAX: Coherent versus Non-Coherent and Cooperative Turbo-Transceivers provides an up-to-date portrayal of wireless transmission based on OFDM techniques augmented with Space-Time Block Codes (STBCs) and Spatial-Division Multiple Access (SDMA). The volume also offers an in-depth treatment of cutting-edge Cooperative Communications.
This
monograph collates the latest techniques in a number of specific design
areas of turbo-detected MIMO-OFDM wireless systems. As a result a wide
range of topical subjects are examined, including channel coding and
multiuser detection (MUD), with a special emphasis on optimum
maximum-likelihood (ML) MUDs, reduced-complexity genetic algorithm aided
near-ML MUDs and sphere detection. The benefits of spreading codes as
well as joint iterative channel and data estimation are only a few of
the radical new features of the book.
Also considered are the
benefits of turbo and LDPC channel coding, the entire suite of known
joint coding and modulation schemes, space-time coding as well as
SDM/SDMA MIMOs within the context of various application examples. The
book systematically converts the lessons of Shannon's information theory
into design principles applicable to practical wireless systems; the
depth of discussions increases towards the end of the book.
- Discusses many state-of-the-art topics important to today's wireless communications engineers.
- Includes numerous complete system design examples for the industrial practitioner.
- Offers a detailed portrayal of sphere detection.
- Based
on over twenty years of research into OFDM in the context of various
applications, subsequently presenting comprehensive bibliographies.
