LTE, WiMAX and WLAN Network Design, Optimization and Performance Analysis (PDF)

A technological overview of LTE and WiMAX

LTE, WiMAX and WLAN Network Design, Optimization and
Performance Analysis provides a practical guide to LTE and
WiMAX technologies introducing various tools and concepts used
within. In addition, topics such as traffic modelling of IP-centric
networks, RF propagation, fading, mobility, and indoor coverage are
explored; new techniques which increase throughput such as MIMO and
AAS technology are highlighted; and simulation, network design and
performance analysis are also examined. Finally, in the latter part
of the book Korowajczuk gives a step-by-step guide to network
design, providing readers with the capability to build reliable and
robust data networks.

By focusing on LTE and WiMAX this book extends current network
planning approaches to next generation wireless systems based on
OFDMA, providing an essential resource for engineers and operators
of fixed and wireless broadband data access networks. With
information presented in a sequential format, LTE, WiMAX and
WLAN Network Design, Optimization and Performance Analysis aids
a progressive development of knowledge, complementing latter
graduate and postgraduate courses while also providing a valuable
resource to network designers, equipment vendors, reference
material, operators, consultants, and regulators.
