Description
Awarded by the International Calabria's Prize!
This multidisciplinary volume originates from lectures presented at
a short course on wireless communications in Capri, Italy. This globally attended conference has produced an exceptional book written
by pioneers in the field. Lecturers at Capri included pillars in the fields of electromagnetics, communications, information technology
and mathematics. As communications technology becomes increasingly wireless, an interdisciplinary viewpoint is necessary for professionals
to correct problems and avoid others before they occur.
Wireless Networks covers critical technology within WLAN, ad hoc
networks, data distribution, TV, radio, and personal mobile devices. As networks become wireless, engineers face increased difficulty
securing its malleable boundaries. This book discusses security solutions such as sensor technology that prevent unwanted intrusion.
Connectivity is also addressed, featuring chapters on antennas, bandwidth and frequencies. Editors Franceschetti and Stornelli have done
a great service to the wireless communications community in creating a compendium that delivers this spectrum of essential information
in one reference.
Audience:
Engineers and wireless network designers working in communications, aerospace, defense, transportation, and manufacturing; R&D managers; graduates and undergraduates
