About this ebook

As a result of higher frequencies and increased user mobility, researchers and systems designers are shifting their focus from time-invariant models to channels that vary within a block. Wireless Communications Over Rapidly Time-Varying Channels explains the latest theoretical advances and practical methods to give an understanding of rapidly time varying channels, together with performance trade-offs and potential performance gains, providing the expertise to develop future wireless systems technology. As well as an overview of the issues of developing wireless systems using time-varying channels, the book gives extensive coverage to methods for estimating and equalizing rapidly time-varying channels, including a discussion of training data optimization, as well as providing models and transceiver methods for time-varying ultra-wideband channels.
  • An introduction to time-varying channel models gives in a nutshell the important issues of developing wireless systems technology using time-varying channels
  • Extensive coverage of methods for estimating and equalizing rapidly time-varying channels, including a discussion of training data optimization, enables development of high performance wireless systems
  • Chapters on transceiver design for OFDM and receiver algorithms for MIMO communication channels over time-varying channels, with an emphasis on modern iterative turbo-style architectures, demonstrates how these important technologies can optimize future wireless systems

    Chapter 1. Fundamentals of Time-Varying Communication Channels

    Gerald Matz and Franz Hlawatsch

    Vienna University of Technology, Vienna, Austria

    Wireless communication systems, i.e., systems transmitting information via electromagnetic (radio) or acoustic (sound) waves, have become ubiquitous. In many of these systems, the transmitter or the receiver is mobile. Even if both link ends are static, scatterers – i.e., objects that reflect, scatter, or diffract the propagating waves – may move with significant velocities. These situations give rise to time variations of the wireless channel due to the Doppler effect. Nonideal local oscillators are another source of temporal channel variations, even in the case of wireline channels. Because of their practical relevance, linear time-varying (LTV) channels have attracted considerable interest in the fields of signal processing, communications, propagation, information theory, and mathematics. In their most general form, LTV channels are also referred to as time-frequency (TF) dispersive or doubly dispersive, as well as TF selective or doubly selective.
