Discover cutting-edge research in wireless communications This book presents cutting-edge research in wireless communications, particularly in the fast-growing subject of multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) wireless communication systems. It begins with an introduction, which includes historical notes and a review of turbo-information processing and MIMO wireless communications, and goes on to cover:* MIMO channel capacity* BLAST architectures* Space-time turbo codes and turbo decoding principles* Turbo-BLAST* Turbo-MIMO systems The material is complemented with abundant illustrations and computer experiments that are designed to help readers reinforce their understanding of the underlying subject matter. Space-Time Layered Information Processing for Wireless Communications is an ideal resource for researchers in academia and industry and an excellent textbook for related courses at the graduate level.

Because Wideband Multiple Input and Multiple Output (MIMO) technology is just now being implemented in hardware, there is currently a great desire for knowledge of both the theory and practicality of its channels. Bringing together theoretical and practical aspects of MIMO communications, Wideband MIMO Channel Models is the first book to apply tensor calculus to the problem of wideband MIMO channel modeling. The text contains important novel material for how to model a MIMO channel, making it suitable for graduate students, researchers, and engineers.
