This book offers a practical guide on how to use andapply channel models for system evaluation
In this book, the authors focus on modeling and simulation ofmultiple antennas channels, including multiple input multipleoutput (MIMO) communication channels, and the impact of such modelson channel estimation and system performance. Both narrowband andwideband models are addressed. Furthermore, the book covers topicsrelated to modeling of MIMO channel, their numerical simulation,estimation and prediction, as well as applications to receivediversity, capacity and space-time coding techniques.
Key Features:
* Contains significant background material, as well as novelresearch coverage, which make the book suitable for both graduatestudents and researchers
* Addresses issues such as key-hole, correlated and non i.i.d.channels in the frame of the Generalized Gaussian approach
* Provides a unique treatment of generalized Gaussian channelsand orthogonal channel representation
* Reviews different interpretations of scattering environment,including geometrical models
* Focuses on the analytical techniques which give a good insightinto the design of systems on higher levels
* Describes a number of numerical simulators demonstrating thepractical use of this material.
* Includes an accompanying website containing additionalmaterials and practical examples for self-study
This book will be of interest to researchers, engineers,lecturers, and graduate students.
