It discusses scenarios which are critical for dedicated navigation systems such as the Global Positioning System (GPS) and which motivate the use of positioning based on terrestrial wireless communication systems.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThe book introduces approaches for determination of parameters which are dependent on the position of the mobile terminal and also discusses iterative algorithms to estimate and track the position of the mobile terminal. Models for radio propagation and user mobility are important for performance investigations and assessments using computer simulations. Thus, channel and mobility models are explored, especially focussing on critical navigation environments like urban or indoor scenarios.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003ePositioning in Wireless Communications Systems\u003c\/i\u003e examines advanced algorithms such as hybrid data fusion of satellite navigation and positioning with wireless communications and cooperative positioning among mobile terminals.. The performance of the discussed positioning techniques are explored on the basis of already existing and operable terrestrial wireless communication systems such as GSM, UMTS, or LTE and it is shown how positioning issues are fixed in respective standards.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eWritten by industry experts working at the cutting edge of technological development, the authors are well placed to give an excellent view on this topic, enabling in-depth coverage of current developments.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eKey features\u003cbr\u003e \u003c\/b\u003e- Unique in its approach to dealing with a heterogeneous system approach, different cell structures and signal proposals for future communications systems\u003cbr\u003e - Covers hybrid positioning investigating how GNSS and wireless communications positioning complement each other\u003cbr\u003e - Applications and exploitation of positioning information are discussed to show the benefits of including this information in several parts of a wireless communications system\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Stephan Sand,Armin Dammann,Christian Mensing\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0470770643\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780470770641\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Wiley\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 05\/05\/2014\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 280\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.20lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.70h x 6.80w x 0.70d","brand":"Stephan Sand","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":47579588755711,"sku":"9780470770641","price":105.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_fbb5643f-c5e4-4f89-a865-074e38be188a.jpg?v=1763875242","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/positioning-in-wireless-commun-stephan-sand-9780470770641","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
