As the field has progressed, cooperative communications have become a design concept rather than a specific transmission technology. This concept has revolutionized the design of wireless networks, allowing increased coverage, throughput, and transmission reliability even as conventional transmission techniques gradually reach their limits. Cooperative and relay technologies have also made their way toward next generation wireless standards, such as IEEE802.16 (WiMAX) or LTE, and have been incorporated into many modern wireless applications, such as cognitive radio and secret communications. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003eCooperative Communications and Networking: Technologies and System Design\u003c\/i\u003e provides a systematic introduction to the fundamental concepts of cooperative communications and relays technology to enable engineers, researchers or graduate students to conduct advanced research and development in this area.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe contents of the book can be summarized as follows: \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIntroduces the reader to various cooperation and relay techniques along with a survey of its role in next generation wireless standards\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eReviews basic wireless communication and MIMO techniques for readers new to this field\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePresents fundamental cooperative communication and relay techniques for a basic cooperative entity that consists of only two users and a common destination\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFundamental limits of cooperative and relay channels are described from the information-theoretic standpoint\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDescribes how cooperative and relay technology can be integrated with other advanced wireless technology, such as OFDM and MIMO\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIntroduces several cross-layer and networking issues that may arise in cooperative networks, including routing, QoS, and security considerations\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003eCooperative Communications and Networking: Technologies and System Design\u003c\/i\u003e provides researchers, graduate students, and practical engineers with sufficient knowledge of both the background of cooperative communications and networking, and potential research directions. \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Springer","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":45274350977175,"sku":"9781441971937","price":11017.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0666\/3471\/1191\/files\/9781441971937.webp?v=1769279665","url":"https:\/\/atlanticbooks.com\/products\/cooperative-communications-and-networking-technologies-and-system-design-9781441971937","provider":"Atlantic Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
