Bücher der Reihe Electrical Engineering Handbook

This third edition reflects the latest advances in mobile communications. In particular, the text expands coverage of wireless local area networks, low-speed wireless data, and wireless ATM. The book also addresses new standards for wireless LANs and high-speed broadband, as well as for wireless mesh networks, mobile ad hoc networks, and tandem connections of digital cellular, IEEE 802.11, and IEEE 8902.16 networks. The author also covers the development of very-short-distance wireless connectivity technologies, such as Bluetooth and ultrawideband technologies, along with the rise of third- and fourth-generation digital cellular systems and wireless multimedia communications.

In a single volume, this handbook covers the entire field -- from principles of analog and digital communications to cordless telephones, wireless LANs, and international technology standards. The tremendous scope of this second edition ensures that its serving as the primary reference for every aspect of mobile communications.

Offers information for the of ad hoc wireless networks. This book addresses potential uses of ad hoc wireless networks, such as disaster recovery and applications related to healthcare, defense, home networking, the classroom, and corporate conferencing. It also covers security and privacy of information in ad hoc wireless networks.

This first volume offers an overview for those new to the field, but it is also very valuable in any fields where work is reliant on, but not exclusively dedicated to, control systems. Covering mathematical fundamentals, defining principles, and basic system approaches, this volume details essential background, including transforms and complex variables. It also includes mathematical and graphical models used for dynamical systems, with coverage of analysis and design methods and stability testing for continuous-time systems. Delving into digital control and discrete-time systems¿including real-time software for implementing feedback control and programmable controllers¿this volume analyzes design methods for nonlinear systems.

This book serves as an essential reference for all engineers involved in signal and image processing. It examines the theories and applications of signal processing in filtering, coding, transmitting, estimating, detecting, analysing, recognising, and reproducing signals.

Organized by engineering speciality, this handbook is suitable for students, practitioners, and researchers in the various areas of engineering.
