[size=120%]Performance Analysis of Multichannel and Multi-Traffic on Wireless Communication Networks
By Wuyi Yue, Yutaka Matsumoto

• Publisher:   Springer
• Number Of Pages:   324
• Publication Date:   2002-02-28
• ISBN-10 / ASIN:   0792376773
• ISBN-13 / EAN:   9780792376774
• Binding:   Hardcover

Product Description:
With rapid increase of mobile users of laptop computers and cellular phones, support of Internet services like e-mail and World Wide Web (WWW) access in a mobile environment is an indispensable requirement. The wireless networks must have the ability to provide real-time bursty traffic (such as voice or video) and data traffic in a multimedia environment with high quality of service. To satisfy the huge demand for wireless multimedia service, efficient channel access methods must be devised. For design and tuning of the channel access methods, the system performance must be mathematically analysed. To do so, very accurate models, that faithfully reproduce the stochastic behaviour of multimedia wireless communication and computer networks, must be constructed.
There exist several books on the performance analysis and evaluation for data communication networks or computer networks. This book attempts to present exact and approximate analytical solution methods and techniques using queueing theory in the complex multimedia traffic systems with procedures of random multiple access schemes. In particular, this book presents how to approximate the system performance of discrete-time multimedia networks, the probability distribution of the interarrival time of internetwork packets at the adjacent network and the higher moments of the transmission departure distribution and delay in wireless multimedia communication environment. In general the modeling of discrete-time multimedia communication systems are more complex than that of continuous-time systems because multiple state changes can occur from one time-unit to the next. This complicates the analysis of the model. This book also discusses numerical results that illustrate the applications of the theory and various properties.
Performance Analysis of Multichannel and Multi-Traffic on Wireless Communication Networks should prove useful to a post-graduate course in computer science or electrical engineering. It can be a pre requisite to some other more advanced courses like network design and management or queueing theory with applications to multimedia communication and computer networks. It can also be used for a course on stochastic models in applied mathematics and operations research departments.

[size=120%]Performance Enhancements in a Frequency Hopping GSM Network
By Thomas Toftegaard Nielsen, Jeroen Wigard

• Publisher:   Springer
• Number Of Pages:   333
• Publication Date:   2000-05-15
• ISBN-10 / ASIN:   0792378199
• ISBN-13 / EAN:   9780792378198
• Binding:   Hardcover

Product Description:
Due to the explosive global growth in the number of mobile subscribers, as well as the growth predicted in the mobile data segment, the need for improved spectrum efficiency on the radio interface becomes more and more important. Frequency hopping (FH) is an effective method for improving the spectrum efficiency. One of the advantages of FH is that it can be combined with other spectral efficiency improving features like power control, handover and reuse partitioning.
Performance Enhancements in a Frequency Hopping GSM Network covers FH and some of the additional features in detail. It begins with an in-depth description of the basic concept of FH on link level as well as on system level. Different methods have been used for analysis, such as link level simulations, network level simulations and classic tele-traffic theory.
Special features of Performance Enhancements in a Frequency Hopping GSM Network:

• Combines the practical experiences of operator and vendor with more theoretical research methods. An in-depth treatment of prevailing problems in GSM networks;
• Presentation of a new method, computer-aided network design (CAND), which has been developed to analyse the complex network structures of a GSM network. CAND provides the possibility for more realistic performance evaluations than conventional methods;
• Provides GSM-specific analysis of functionality improvements in power control, discontinuous transmission, and several handover algorithms;
• Explanation of the quality and capacity gains of features like the combination of FH and reuse partitioning, referred to as intelligent frequency hopping;
• A frequency planning method for FH GSM networks is presented. This method exploits the benefits from FH directly in the allocation process, increasing the overall frequency plan.

Summary: Imfomative overview of Frequency Hopping and a good read
Rating: 3
Engineers working with GSM networks that have not yet implemented Frequency Hopping in their system will find this book very helpful and imformative. The author presented the basic principles of Frequency Hopping and some enhancement capabilities in a consise way, however there are several optimization techniques that the Authors might have not yet encountered to maximize the network performance. Already available in the market are Automatic Frequency Planning Tools like CellOpt AFP that can handle complex frequency planning criteria for Synthesized Frequency Hopping Networks. Nevertheless this is a good read and recommended for Engineers and Managers wishing to implement BFH or SFH in their system.

• ISBN-10 / ASIN:   0792374614
• ISBN-13 / EAN:   9780792374619
• Binding:   Hardcover

Product Description:
The tendency towards more mobility and flexibility favors wireless networks for future broadband services, especially in local area and residential networks. Two major challenges in developing such high data-rate wireless networks are the channel distortion caused by multipath propagation and the limitations on bandwidth usage. In this book, novel transmission techniques are proposed that achieve multi-path mitigation, through orthogonal frequency-domain processing, in combination with a high bandwidth efficiency, through space division multiple access (SDMA). By exploiting the parallelism in the data-model and the frequency-selectivity of the propagation channel, high-performance non-linear detection algorithms with modest complexity requirements are obtained. In addition to discussing these core detection algorithms, this book pays special attention to the real-world problems encountered when integrating these into a complete system. Most notably, an optimal multi-user channel estimator and a combined pre- and post-synchronization approach are presented. Furthermore, complexity reduction is a recurring theme throughout the book. It has been addressed on several levels in the system design and encompasses network architecture, algorithmic and implementation architecture optimizations. Finally, an extended version of the recently finalized HIPERLAN-II standard is presented, which demonstrates the applicability of the proposed techniques and assesses their joint performance.
Space Division Multiple Access for Wireless Local Area Networks is appropriate for practitioners and researchers in the mobile communications and wireless fields.
