Wireless Telecommunication Systems (PDF)

Wireless telecommunication systems generate a huge amount of
interest. In the last two decades, these systems have experienced
at least three major technological leaps, and it has become
impossible to imagine how society was organized without them. In
this book, we propose a macroscopic approach on wireless systems,
and aim at answering key questions about power, data rates,
multiple access, cellular engineering and access networks
architectures.

We present a series of solved problems, whose objective is to
establish the main elements of a global link budget in several
radiocommunications systems.
