Editorial Reviews
Review"This text is an especially helpful as an accompaniment to the 3GPP specifications themselves, which offer no explanations as to why one thing or another is included, no hint as to why one protocol technique was chosen over another, or why certain contributions appear only to disappear in later releases. Khan's text offers a welcome set of explanations
for pretty much all the mysteries in the specifications; the book gave me a sense of having sat through the LTE formulation process itself. Farooq Khan gives us a rigorous exploration of the contributing technologies
and practices with all the whys and wherefores disclosed. The book is, in my view, a critical accompaniment to the LTE specifications for readers who prefer to understand what they are reading and would like to be able to interpret and actually use the LTE specifications."

Product DescriptionDo you need to get up to speed quickly on LTE?
Understand the new technologies of the LTE standard and how they contribute to improvements in system performance with this practical and valuable
guide, written by an expert on LTE who was intimately involved in drafting the standard. In addition to a strong grounding in the technical details, you'll also get fascinating insights into why particular technologies were chosen in the development process.
Core topics covered include:
Network architecture and protocols
OFDMA downlink access
Low-PAPR SC-FDMA uplink access
Transmit diversity and MIMO spatial multiplexing
Channel structure and bandwidths
Cell search, reference
signals and random access
Turbo coding with contention-free interleaver
Scheduling, link adaptation, hybrid ARQ and
power control
Uplink and downlink physical control signaling
Inter-cell interference mitigation techniques
Single-frequency network (SFN) broadcast
MIMO spatial channel model
Evaluation methodology and system performance
With extensive references, a useful discussion of technologies that were not included in the standard, and end-of-chapter summaries that emphasize all the key points, this book is an essential resource for practitioners in the mobile cellular communications industry and for graduate students studying advanced wireless communications.
