Introduction
Advanced Wireless Communication Systems: A Comprehensive Guide bridges foundational principles with emerging paradigms to present a unified and in-depth exploration of the technologies, architectures, and innovations shaping contemporary and next-generation wireless networks.
Opening with an overview of wireless technology evolution, the book discusses global standards and regulatory frameworks for wireless networks while also systematically exploring wireless channel modelling, simulation methodologies, and a wide range of network architectures, including cellular networks, Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, Zigbee, LoRaWAN, and IoT connectivity frameworks. Advanced physical-layer and system-level technologies such as MIMO, OFDM, millimetre-wave, terahertz communication, and free-space optical systems are examined in detail, along with critical security and privacy challenges in modern wireless networks.
Later chapters focus on future-facing innovations, including massive MIMO, beamforming, cognitive radio, dynamic spectrum access, and vehicular communication systems. The book culminates with cutting-edge topics such as machine-learning-driven network slicing, latency optimisation for ultra-reliable low-latency communications (URLLC), and noncoherent system design targeting 6G-class applications.
