Introduction to Ultra Wide Band Communication Systems offers a

comprehensive view of UWB system design, that spans propagation, antennas,

receive and transmitter implementations, standards and regulations,

interference issues, simulation techniques, modulation and multiple access,

network issues, and applications. This book encompasses all areas of design

and implementation of UWB systems crucial to their successful testing and

deployment.

UWB offers unique capabilities, such as extremely high data rates, and building

partitions and ground penetrating transmission. The FCC acknowledged the

benefits of UWB when, in 2001, regulations were modified to allow the

transmission of UWB signals. The standardization effort has recently come to

fruition with the creation of a new, regulated communication standard.

However, a new standard brings along with it new regulations and equipment;

and the design of UWB systems is very different than traditional

communication systems. The current general reference books for design of

communication systems are insufficient, and in some cases could be misleading

to a UWB designer. Furthermore, there is a tremendous need to unify the

diverse concepts and fields of study embedded in the design of UWB systems.

Breaks down the fundamentals of UWB, equiping engineers with the understanding of this newly approved communication standard.

° Ultra Wide Band is a revolutionary new standard, expected to revitalize the

communications industry.

° The perfect sequel to "Understanding Ultra Wide Band Radio Fundamentals"

0131480030, published in June 2004.

° Authored by members of the prestigous Mobile and Protable Research Group

(MPRG), the first wireless research facility in the U.S. founded by Ted Rappaport.

The definitive, end-to-end guide to high-performance UWB system design

With the FCC's approval of new ultra wideband standards, UWB is poised to drive breakthroughs in both commercial and military communications. However, UWB system design is radically different from conventional communications system design, and traditional design guides are insufficient—or even misleading. Now, for the first time, there's an authoritative and comprehensive guide to the latest best practices in UWB system design.

Authored by leading-edge experts and researchers, Introduction to Ultra Wideband Communication Systems systematically addresses every major issue engineers will face in designing, implementing, testing, and deploying successful systems. The authors cover propagation, antennas, receiver and transmitter implementation, standards and regulations, interference, simulation, modulation and multiple access, networking, applications, and more.

Topics include

  • UWB fundamentals: technology, system components, standards/regulations, and the controversies surrounding UWB

  • Never-before-published techniques for addressing propagation, modeling, and channel simulation

  • UWB antenna design—including surprising differences between UWB and narrowband systems

  • Effective transmitter design reflecting UWB's modulation principles

  • Receiver design for impulse UWB systems—including key differences from conventional carrier-based systems

  • In-depth coverage of interference, focusing on "peaceful coexistence" between UWB and narrowband radio systems

  • Practical simulation techniques that avoid unacceptably long simulation times

  • How UWB's physical layer capabilities impact the performance and design of upper layers

  • Real-world UWB applications and case studies of existing systems

This book is the definitive resource for every professional involved with UWB: RF engineers concerned with UWB's impact on radio design; experienced computer and DSP engineers moving into radio communications; systems engineers who must master UWB radio link design; and technical managers who must clearly understand the challenges they'll face in delivering successful systems.

    Appropriate for all communications engineering courses that cover ad hoc wireless network planning, design, deployment, or management.

    Ad hoc wireless networks bring together mobile devices without complex infrastructure, setup, or administration—and they have enormous commercial and military potential. Ad Hoc Wireless Networks: Architectures and Protocols is the first book to address every major issue related to their design and performance. Leading researchers C. Siva Ram Murthy and B. S. Manoj present state-of-the-art techniques and solutions, and support them with more than 200 clear examples and end-of-chapter problems. Murthy and Manoj cover media access, transport, routing, and multicasting; QoS provisioning, self-organization, security, energy management, service discovery, and much more. They offer new solutions designed to simplify deployment and improve scalability. Along the way, they introduce many topics found in no other book, including Wi-Fi ad hoc networks, hybrid wireless architectures, ultra wideband ad hoc networks, wireless sensor networks, and ad hoc network pricing techniques. This book is part of the Prentice Hall Communications Engineering and Emerging Technologies Series, Theodore Rappaport, Series Editor. Rappaport recently praised it as “the finest I have seen on the topic.”

    Exceptionally accessible, this book presents the often “difficult” concepts of digital communications in an easy-to- understand manner—without diluting the mathematical precision. Using a student-friendly approach, it develops the important techniques in the context of a unified structure (in block diagram form)—providing organization and structure to a field that has, and continues, to grow rapidly, and ensuring that students gain an awareness of the “big picture” even while delving into the details (the most up-to-date modulation, coding, and signal processing techniques that have become the basic tools of our modern era). It traces signals and key processing steps from the information source through the transmitter, channel, receiver, and ultimately to the information sink.

    • For one-semester graduate-level Electrical Engineering courses covering simulation-based design and analysis of communication systems, as well as a reference for professional engineers responsible for the design or analysis of communication systems, or professionals who wish to learn computer-based simulation techniques.

    This book presents a comprehensive overview of computer-based simulation models and methodologies for communication systems. Because such models are a useful and necessary tool in the design, analysis, and performance of communication systems as well as a means of evaluating design changes in these systems, Principles Of Communication Systems Simulation With Wireless Applications uses MATLAB as a basis for developing effective computer-based simulations. Such simulations are intended to capture the essential features of the system to assure accurate results while minimizing the complexity of the model, ensuring execution of the simulation code in a reasonable amount of time. Among the fundamental topics covered are probability, random, process, and estimation theory and their roles in the design of computer-based simulations.
