Mobile communications is an exciting industry which is full of high-tech terminologies and buzzwords. People in the industry use terms like 3G, 4G, LTE, HSPA, HSPA+, etc. very often but it is not clear for everyone as to what these words really represent. In today's market when it is very common for people to work internationally, having an unclear view of the basic terminologies can lead to misunderstandings. For example, 3G could mean CDMA2000 to someone from the United States, but it may mean UMTS (based on W-CDMA) to someone in Europe. It is especially confusing for those who are relatively new to the industry such as students or new graduates. Why this book?The intention of this book is to save time for those looking for professional information quickly. It means that you don't have to read hundreds of pages to develop a basic understanding of mobile communications. It is written by someone who has already spent a lot of time reading hundreds (or thousands) of pages of academic and professional documentation whilst working full-time in the industry just to come to a simple conclusion: "I wish someone had explained it in fewer words". Hopefully, the ~24 pages of this book give you the basic understanding that you need before diving into the details of mobile communications technologies. The specific aim of this book is to provide a basic understanding of the main technologies used for enabling mobile cellular communications:1GAMPS2G GSMD-AMPSIS-95GPRSEDGE3G UMTSCDMA2000HSPAHSPA+EVDO4GLTE

Principles of Mobile Communication provides an authoritative treatment of the fundamentals of mobile communications, one of the fastest growing areas of the modern telecommunications industry. The book stresses the fundamentals of mobile communications engineering that are important for the design of any mobile system. Less emphasis is placed on the description of existing and proposed wireless standards. This focus on fundamental issues should be of benefit not only to students taking formal instruction but also to practising engineers who are likely to already have a detailed familiarity with the standards and are seeking to deepen their knowledge of this important field. The book stresses mathematical modeling and analysis, rather than providing a qualitative overview. It has been specifically developed as a textbook for graduate level instruction and a reference book for practising engineers and those seeking to pursue research in the area. The book contains sufficient background material for the novice, yet enough advanced material for a sequence of graduate level courses. Principles of Mobile Communication treats a variety of contemporary issues, many of which have been treated before only in the journals. Some material in the book has never appeared before in the literature. The book provides an up-to-date treatment of the subject area at a level of detail that is not available in other books. Also, the book is unique in that the whole range of topics covered is not presently available in any other book. Throughout the book, detailed derivations are provided and extensive references to the literature are made. This is of value to the reader wishing to gain detailed knowledge of a particular topic.

Mobile and wireless communications applications have a clear impact on improving the humanity wellbeing. From cell phones to wireless internet to home and office devices, most of the applications are converted from wired into wireless communication. Smart and advanced wireless communication environments represent the future technology and evolutionary development step in homes, hospitals, industrial, vehicular and transportation systems. A very appealing research area in these environments has been the wireless ad hoc, sensor and mesh networks. These networks rely on ultra low powered processing nodes that sense surrounding environment temperature, pressure, humidity, motion or chemical hazards, etc. Moreover, the radio frequency (RF) transceiver nodes of such networks require the design of transmitter and receiver equipped with high performance building blocks including antennas, power and low noise amplifiers, mixers and voltage controlled oscillators. Nowadays, the researchers are facing several challenges to design such building blocks while complying with ultra low power consumption, small area and high performance constraints. CMOS technology represents an excellent candidate to facilitate the integration of the whole transceiver on a single chip. However, several challenges have to be tackled while designing and using nanoscale CMOS technologies and require innovative idea from researchers and circuits designers. While major researchers and applications have been focusing on RF wireless communication, optical wireless communication based system has started to draw some attention from researchers for a terrestrial system as well as for aerial and satellite terminals. This renewed interested in optical wireless communications is driven by several advantages such as no licensing requirements policy, no RF radiation hazards, and no need to dig up roads besides its large bandwidth and low power consumption. This second part of the book, Mobile and Wireless Communications: Key Technologies and Future Applications, covers the recent development in ad hoc and sensor networks, the implementation of state of the art of wireless transceivers building blocks and recent development on optical wireless communication systems. We hope that this book will be useful for students, researchers and practitioners in their research studies.
