This book describes the technologies involved in all aspects of a large networking system and how the various devices can interact and communicate with each other. Using a bottom up approach the authors demonstrate how it is feasible, for instance, for a cellular device user to communicate, via the all-purpose TCP/IP protocols, with a wireless notebook computer user, traversing all the way through a base station in a cellular wireless network (e.g., GSM, CDMA), a public switched network (PSTN), the Internet, an intranet, a local area network (LAN), and a wireless LAN access point. The information bits, in travelling through this long path, are processed by numerous disparate communication technologies. The authors also describe the technologies involved in infrastructure less wireless networks.
This innovative book sets forth two promising wireless approachesthat support high-quality, high-speed data and multimediaservice-multiple antenna technologies and cross layer transmitteradaptation designs-while highlighting the relationships andinteractions between them. The latest advanced technologies ofchannel adaptation techniques for wireless communication systemswith multiple antennas are thoroughly investigated. The book is divided into three parts, first giving readers a goodfoundation in underlying theory, then exploring applications aswell as advanced topics: * Part 1 examines theoretical aspects of channel adaptation inwireless communications for point-to-point and multi-user systemswith multiple antennas * Part 2 focuses on the applications of the channel-adaptivetechnologies in practical systems such as UMTS * Part 3 delves into topics such as multi-user scheduling forwideband systems, combined queuing theory and information theory,and ad hoc routing Using a hands-on, practical approach, Channel Adaptive Technologiesand Cross Layer Designs for Wireless Systems with Multiple Antennasthoroughly covers detailed design considerations that help readersunderstand how to apply theory to real-world systems. Emphasisthroughout the book is on joint optimization across differentlayers of a communications system based on an integrated approach.Examples of popular wireless systems, such as TDMA, wideband CDMA(UMTS), and HSDPA, are used throughout as practical illustrations.Each chapter ends with a summary that reviews key points and a setof problems that lets readers test their knowledge and continue todevelop their skills as they progress to new topics. Figures andtables are also used extensively to help readers visualize complextheory and systems. Combining theory, design, and application into one integratedapproach, this is a superior reference for advanced communicationstheory courses.
Recent scientific advances have revolutionized cancer research and practice, creating a body of molecular biology information that is important to research scientists and clinical oncologists alike. Cancer: Principles and Practice of Oncology: Primer of the Molecular Biology of Cancer, 3rd Edition, keeps you up to date with all that’s new in this rapidly changing field. Derived from DeVita, Hellman, and Rosenberg’s Cancer: Principles and Practice of Oncology – widely regarded as the definitive clinical reference in oncology – the third edition of this popular Primer provides a single-volume, highly focused reference on every important frontier in the molecular biology of cancer.
