1st Edition
by Afif Osseiran (Editor), Jose F. Monserrat (Editor), Werner Mohr (Editor)
A timely addition to the understanding of IMT-Advanced, this book places particular emphasis on the new areas which IMT-Advanced technologies rely on compared with their predecessors. These latest areas include Radio Resource Management, Carrier Aggregation, improved MIMO support and Relaying.
Each technique is thoroughly described and illustrated
before being surveyed in context of the LTE-Advanced standards. The book
also presents state-of-the-art information on the different aspects of
the work of standardization bodies (such as 3GPP and IEEE), making
global links between them.
- Explores the latest research innovations to assess the future of the LTE standard
- Covers
the latest research techniques for beyond IMT-Advanced such as
Coordinated multi-point systems (CoMP), Network Coding, Device-to-Device
and Spectrum Sharing
- Contains key information for researchers
from academia and industry, engineers, regulators and decision makers
working on LTE-Advanced and beyond
