Reconfigurable Radio Systems: Network Architectures and Standards – eBook

Includes the state of the art of the technology and standards for reconfigurable radio systems, from self-organizing networks and cognitive radio, through to reconfigurable architectures for terminals and networks

Reconfigurable Radio Systems, (PDF) gives a standards-based view of the development, techniques, evolution, and potential future scenarios for the deployment of reconfigurable radio systems.

After an introduction to radio and radiomobile systems deployed in the access network, the ebook describes cognitive radio concepts and capabilities, which are the foundations for reconfigurable radio systems.  The self-organizing network features introduced in 3GPP standards are discussed and before IEEE 802.22, the first standard based on cognitive radio, is described. Next the ETSI reconfigurable radio systems functional architecture and the IEEE 1900.4 standard for reconfigurable radio are examined. Lastly, the author presents new scenarios and future visions that reconfigurable radio systems may bring.

Key features: –

• Includes an accompanying website features links and white papers
• Observes the current standards based on cognitive and reconfigurable radio, and analyses future scenarios
• Includes a general outline of radiomobile (i.e. GSM, UMTS, HSPA, LTE) and wireless (i.e. WLAN, WPAN, WiMAX) network architectures

NOTE: The product only includes the ebook, Reconfigurable Radio Systems in PDF. No access codes are included.
