Millimeter Wave Communication Systems

This book presents the modern design and analysis principles of millimeter-wave communication systems for wireless devices. Linking practical examples with theoretical rigor, this book emphasizes the importance and the requirements of high-gain antennas, low power transceiver, adaptive equalizer/modulation, channeling coding and adaptive multi-user detection for gigabit wireless communications. In addition, the book will include the updated research literature and patents in the topics of transceivers, antennas, MIMO, channel capacity, coding, equalizer, Modem and multi-user detection. It gives wireless communication system professionals, millimeter wave professionals, and project managers the design insights they need when integrating these systems.
