The book is written by well-known experts in the field of wireless technologies. Published with and under the auspices of the WiMAX Forum. The monograph describes the principles of construction, logical and physical structure of wireless data networks of urban/regional scale. IEEE 802. wireless networks 11, including mesh networks. Describes the architecture and principles of the organization of WiMAX networks (for the first time in the domestic literature) IEEE 802. radio access technology detailed 16, including mobile networks (IEEE 802.) 1be). It describes cellular networks of 3G and LTE standards (also for the first time in the domestic literature), as well as technologies of broadband digital television and radio broadcasting (DVB and DAB). Principles of MIMO technology. Examples of implementation of regional WiMAX-networks. The theoretical bases of information transfer (theorems of Shannon, Kotelnikov, Nayquist), methods of coding and modulation in wireless networks. are presented. In general, the monograph is a unique reference manual but the main wireless broadband access technologies today, covering issues from network architecture to hardware implementation of devices and equipment certification principles. Combination as the minimum necessary theoretical foundations of wireless telecommunications , as well as descriptions of specific standards, schematic principles of building their supporting devices and examples of implementation of specific wireless networks makes the book useful to a wide range of readers primarily # specialists, Building Broadband Wireless Networks , Developers of telecommunications equipment , Managers of IT departments and similar services .
