Most books in wireless communications address technical subjects which are relevant to ground mobile systems. Volume 2: Terrestrial and Mobile Interference of the Wireless Communications Design Handbook addresses a topic frequently overlooked in ground mobile wireless system design: interference problems at the hardware level. This book employes a hardware-oriented approach, which is the most effective approach for addressing interference and noise problems in ground mobile wireless systems. The book is a practical reference for engineers who are particularly interested in practical case studies covering how to avoid undesired interference and noise problems in their designs. It covers some of the most common interference models usually addressed, and it describes material related to transmitter and receiver hardware design and how interference control plays a significant role in equipment performance. Each of the three Wireless Communications Design Handbook volumes addresses theory and immediate applications. Design issues are also considered in detail for the protection of wireless ground systems against interference. - An applications-oriented reference for engineers, system designers, and practitioners - Addresses the most common interference concerns in ground mobile wireless communications systems - Provides a hardware-oriented approach for addressing trasmitter and receiver interference issues, as well as ground mobile designs - Gives extensive detail regarding noise and interference control solutions for grounded wireless facilities - Details the space interference effect in ground mobile systems - Discusses hardware issues ranging from digital phones to ground stations

Volume One of the Wireless Communications Design Handbook provides an in-depth look at interference problems in satellite communications. The material presented is from a satellite or spacecraft hardware point of view rather than from theoretical models. Each satellite subsystem is described in detail to point out interference and noise problems associated with it. The book also addresses typical architectures and hardware design issues in satellites. In addition, a detailed look at space interference is discussed with emphasis on the possible impact on satellite electronics. - An applications-oriented reference for engineers, system designers, and practitioners - Addresses the most common interference concerns in ground mobile wireless communications systems - Hardware-oriented approach to interference and noise concerns as well as satellite subsystem design - All satellite subsystems described in great technical detail - Significantly covers space interference with a slanted approach to satellite hardware effects - Covers modern hardware design for low earth orbit satellites to be used in wireless communications

Publisher Description

The insatiable demand for high-speed real-time computer connectivity anywhere, any time, fuelled by the wide-spreading acceptance of Internet Protocol, has accelerated the birth of a large number of wireless data networks. Wireless Transceiver Design provides a comprehensive, practical, self-contained and friendly guide to theoretical and practical modern wireless modem & transceiver design for experienced radio and communication engineers and students. This book will enable readers to fully understand the specifications that characterize the performance of modern wireless modems and transceivers as a whole system, learn how to measure each one of them, and discover how they depend on (one or more) components and subsystems in the various architectures of widespread use. It discusses the important figures related to off-the-shelf radio-frequency and baseband super-components and explains how to measure them to fully evaluate applicability and limitations. Key Features: Readers will learn to master the design, analysis and measurement of important and hard-to-achieve parameters, such as phase noise of oscillators, peak-to-average and linearity of radio-frequency power amplifiers, amplitude and phase balance of quadrature channels and radiated spurious emission Written so that each chapter is self contained and suitable to be consulted on an ad-hoc basis as a reference The lesser covered topic of ‘parasitic phenomena’, the cause of many major after-market disasters, is addressed The material is treated with in-depth mathematical approach, whilst avoiding unnecessarily obscure discussions Suitable as the basis for advanced under-graduate and post-graduate engineering courses, as well as a comprehensive reference, this book will be of interest to those involved in R&D in the fields of engineering and computer sciences, radio engineers working on cellular products and system engineers in the wireless arena, as well as professors and lecturers in the field of communications, undergraduate and post-graduate students in engineering, computer sciences and system engineering.
