Abstract

From the Publisher:Code Division Multiple Access (CDMA) is a hot topic. Until now, it has only been used in satellite and military systems, but engineers are starting to recognize certain advantages it has over FDMA and TDMA for use in cellular radio. This book provides the first comprehensive analysis of the theory and practical applications of CDMA. Authored by a recognized expert in the field, it fills a gap in current literature by explaining the use of CDMA in different environments, presenting CDMA as a multiple access protocol for wireless indoor, outdoor, and land mobile satellite communication systems. This is cutting-edge information for all those involved in the future of wireless personal communications. It enables engineers, researchers and students to: 聲 Compare wired (cable) and wireless network systems 聲 Understand multiple access protocols 聲 Learn hybrid CDMA 聲 Apply CDMA to various mobile systems 聲 Investigate multiple access schemes for future wireless communication systems You'll gain a complete overview of CDMA, as well as useful solutions to the general problems of wireless communications as they relate to CDMA protocol, and recommended techniques to enhance the performance of a CDMA-based wireless personal communication system. Because the author recognizes that CDMA will have to be implemented in phases, he also addresses the practicalities of the coexistence of CDMA and TDMA. Complete with 180 illustrations, 400 equations, practical examples, and appendices.
