Taking a coherent and logical approach, this book describesthe potential use of co-ordinated multipoint systems supportedby radio over fiber. It covers an impressive breadth of topics,ranging from components, subsystem and system architecture, tonetwork management and business perspectives. The authors showthe importance of radio over fiber in eliminating or mitigatingagainst the current, perceived barriers to the use of co-ordinatedmultipoint, and the drivers for standardisation activities infuture mobile/wireless systems over the next few years.
The book brings together the system concept for centralizedprocessing, including what is required for co-existence with legacywireless systems, the algorithms that can be used for improvingwireless bandwidth utilization at physical and MAC layers and theradio over fiber network and link design necessary to support thewireless system. Other important research is alsocovered as the authors look at compensating for radio over fiberimpairments and providing simple network managementfunctions. A study of service provision and the businesscase for such a future wireless system is also fullyconsidered.
This book comes at an important time for future wireless systemswith standardization of fourth generation wireless systems stillongoing. The content enables readers to make key decisions aboutfuture standardisation and their own research work. The businessanalysis also makes the book useful to those involved in decidingthe future directions of telecoms organisations. This informationwill be core to their decision-making as it provides technicalknowledge of the state-of-the-art but also system level assessmentsof what is possible in a business environment.
