The four short years since Digital Communication over Fading
Channels became an instant classic have seen a virtual explosion of
significant new work on the subject, both by the authors and by
numerous researchers around the world. Foremost among these is a
great deal of progress in the area of transmit diversity and
space-time coding and the associated multiple input-multiple output
(MIMO) channel. This new edition gathers these and other results,
previously scattered throughout numerous publications, into a
single convenient and informative volume.
Like its predecessor, this Second Edition discusses in detail
coherent and noncoherent communication systems as well as a large
variety of fading channel models typical of communication links
found in the real world. Coverage includes single- and multichannel
reception and, in the case of the latter, a large variety of
diversity types. The moment generating function (MGF)-based
approach for performance analysis, introduced by the authors in the
first edition and referred to in literally hundreds of
publications, still represents the backbone of the book’s
presentation. Important features of this new edition include:
* An all-new, comprehensive chapter on transmit diversity,
space-time coding, and the MIMO channel, focusing on performance
evaluation
* Coverage of new and improved diversity schemes
* Performance analyses of previously known schemes in new and
different fading scenarios
* A new chapter on the outage probability of cellular mobile radio
systems
* A new chapter on the capacity of fading channels
* And much more
Digital Communication over Fading Channels, Second Edition is an
indispensable resource for graduate students, researchers
investigating these systems, and practicing engineers responsible
for evaluating their performance.
