Book Synopsis

The aim of this book is to present the modern design and analysis principles of millimeter-wave communication system for wireless devices and to give postgraduates and system professionals the design insights and challenges when integrating millimeter wave personal communication system. Millimeter wave communication system are going to play key roles in modern gigabit wireless communication area as millimeter-wave industrial standards from IEEE, European Computer Manufacturing Association (ECMA) and Wireless High Definition (Wireless HD) Group, are on their way to the market. The book will review up-to-date research results and utilize numerous design and analysis for the whole system covering from Millimeter wave frontend to digital signal processing in order to address major topics in a high speed wireless system.

This book emphasizes the importance and the requirements of high-gain antennas, low power transceiver, adaptive equalizer/modulation, channeling coding and adaptive multi-user detection for gigabit wireless communications. In addition, the book will include the updated research literature and patents in the topics of transceivers, antennas, MIMO, channel capacity, coding, equalizer, Modem and multi-user detection. Finally the application of these antennas will be discussed in light of different forthcoming wireless standards at V-band and E-band.

From the Back Cover

The first book dedicated to complete millimeter wave communication systems, emphasizing modern design and analysis for multi-gigabit millimeter wave devices

Millimeter wave communication systems are poised to play key roles in modern gigabit wireless communication; millimeter wave industrial standards from IEEE, Wireless Gigabit Alliance, European Computer Manufacturers Association, and Wireless High Definition Group are about to emerge. This is the first book to address complete and modern millimeter wave communication systems, covering their key components and explaining the critical issues that influence their performance. The authors, experts in the field of millimeter wave communications, provide powerful techniques for analyzing real millimeter wave systems, with an emphasis on new transceivers, new antennas, multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO), modulations, beam steering, beam forming, and frequency domain equalization.

Covering the whole system from millimeter wave front-end to digital signal processing, the book reviews up-to-date research results and numerous design methods and analysis for an entire high-speed wireless system. Major topics addressed are:

• Millimeter wave characteristics
• Modulations for millimeter wave communications
• Millimeter wave transceivers
• Millimeter wave antennas
• Millimeter wave MIMO
• Advanced diversity over MIMO channels
• Beam steering and beam forming
• Single-carrier frequency domain equalization

The authors emphasize the importance and the requirements of high-gain antennas, low-power transceivers, MIMO, modulation, frequency domain equalization, beam steering, and beam forming for gigabit wireless communications. In addition, they discuss new research and patents in transceivers, antennas, MIMO, channel capacity, equalizers, modems, beam steering, and beam forming. The application of these systems is explained in light of different forthcoming wireless standards for V-band and E-band use. Example designs are presented and the analysis of their performance is detailed.

Linking academic research with commercial applications, this practical resource gives wireless communication system professionals, millimeter wave professionals, and project managers the insights they need to reduce design and production costs when integrating these systems. This book is also written for graduate students who are interested in becoming familiar with the modern communication system concept at millimeter wave range.
