Use of multiple antennas at both ends of WIRELESS links is the result of the natural progression of more than four decades of evolution of adaptive antenna technology. Recent advances have demonstrated that multiple- input-multiple-output (MIMO) WIRELESS systems can achieve impressive increases in overall system performance.

When we started thinking about writing this book, we had been working together for more than five years on the borderline between propagation and signal processing.Therefore, it is not surprising that this book deals with propagation models and design tools for MIMO WIRELESScommunications.Yet, thisbookshouldconstitutemorethanasimplecombination of these two domains. It hopefully conveys our integrated understanding of MIMO, which results from endless controversial discussions on various multi-antenna related issues, as well as various interactions with numerous colleagues. Obviously, this area of technology is so large that it was beyond our aim to cover all aspects in details. Rather, our goal has been to provide researchers, R&D engineers and graduate students with a comprehensive coverage of radio propagation models and space–time coding techniques.

There are few technologies that have had a more profound effect on people’s lives than mobile communications. As recently as twenty years ago no one had a mobile phone, while today 1.4 billion men, women and children depend on them. This now exceeds the number of landline users, where it took the preceding one hundred years to reach the 1 billion mark. The ability to make mobile voice calls turns out to be the answer to a deeply felt need across different cultures who simply want to communicate.

One of the very first books published on the social impact of the mobile phone was Timo Kopomaa’s The City in Your Pocket: Birth of the Mobile Information Society. The book, published in 2000, was based on research that Kopomaa had under- taken for Nokia and Sonera as part of his doctoral studies in the Centre for Urban and Regional Studies at the Helsinki University of Technology. The first line he writes in the book is peculiar: ‘Mobile communication is not a serious matter’. By this, we assume he is referring to a view of the world that would regard the mobile phone as little more than an unremarkable fact of everyday life – a simple play- thing for the young, or a productivity tool for the business executive and busy parent.

In recent years, the research and developments in the area of RF and microwave technologies have progressed significantly due to the growing demand for applica- bility in WIRELESS communication technologies. Starting from 1992, WIRELESS com- munication technologies have become quite mature. In the modern era of electronic developments, design of WIRELESS handsets is an example of integration of many di- verse skill sets. Classical books in the areas of microwave technology provide us with an in-depth knowledge of electromagnetic fundamentals.

At recent major international conferences on WIRELESS communications, there have been several sessions on beyond third generation (3G) or fourth generation(4G)mobilecommunicationssystems,wheremodulation/demod- ulation and multiplexing/multiple access schemes related to multicarrier techniques have drawn a lot of attention. We often met at the conference venuesandrealizedthatnobookcoveredthebasicsofmulticarriertechniques to recent applications aiming at the 4G systems. Therefore, we decided to write a book on multicarrier techniques for 4G mobile communications systems.

The family of recent WIRELESS standards included the optional employment of Multiple-Input Multiple-Output(MIMO)techniques.This was motivatedby the observationaccordingto the classic Shannon–Hartley law that the achievable channel capacity increases logarithmically with the transmit power. In contrast, the MIMO capacity increases linearly with the number of transmit antennas, provided that the number of receive antennas is equal to the number of transmit antennas. With the further proviso that the total transmit power is increased in proportion to the number of transmit antennas, a linear capacity increase is achieved upon increasing the transmit power, which justifies the spectacular success of MIMO systems.

Notwithstanding its infancy, WIRELESS mesh networking (WMN) is a hot and growing field. WIRELESS mesh networks began in the military, but have since become of great interest for commercial use in the last decade, both in local area networks and metropolitan area networks. The attractiveness of mesh networks comes from their ability to interconnect either mobile or fixed devices with radio interfaces, to share information dynamically, or simply to extend range through multi-hopping.

In case you haven’t noticed, multimedia communication over IP and WIRELESS net- works is exploding. Applications such as BitTorrent, used primarily for video downloads, now take up the lion’s share of all traffic on the Internet. Music file sharing, once on the legal cutting edge of massive copyright infringement on col- lege campuses around the world, has moved into the mainstream with signifi- cant legal downloads of music and video to devices such as the iPod and nu- merous other portable media players.
