LTE- A and Next Generation Wireless Networks: Channel
Modeling and Performance describes recent advances in
propagation and channel modeling necessary for simulating next
generation wireless systems. Due to the radio spectrum scarcity,
two fundamental changes are anticipated compared to the current
status. Firstly, the strict reservation of a specific band for a
unique standard could evolve toward a priority policy allowing the
co-existence of secondary users in a band allocated to a primary
system. Secondly, a huge increase of the number of cells is
expected by combining outdoor base stations with smaller cells such
as pico/femto cells and relays. This evolution is accompanied with
the emergence of cognitive radio that becomes a reality in
terminals together with the development of self-organization
capabilities and distributed cooperative behaviors.
The book is divided into three parts:
* Part I addresses the fundamentals (e.g. technologies, channel
modeling principles etc.)
* Part II addresses propagation and modeling discussing topics
such as indoor propagation, outdoor propagation, etc.
* Part III explores system performance and applications (e.g.
MIMO Over-the-air testing, electromagnetic safety, etc).
