There are various approaches to the coding structures, including space-time trellis coded modulation, space-time turbo codes and also layered architectures. The central issue in all these various coding structures is the exploitation of multipath effects in order to achieve very high spectral efficiencies.\u003cbr\u003e The spectral efficiencies of traditional wireless systems range between 1-5bps\/sec\/Hz but by using space-time techniques spectral efficiencies of 20-40bps\/sec\/Hz have been possible. Hence, space-time coding enables an increase in capacity by an order of magnitude. This is the main reason why space-time codes have been included in the standards for the third generation wireless communication systems and ultimately why Space-time Coding will be in great demand by individuals within industry and academia.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e The comprehensive understanding of space-time coding is essential in the implementation of 3G, and as the only title currently available, Space-Time Coding will be the standard text for Researchers, telecommunication engineers and network planners, academics and undergraduate\/postgraduate students, telecommunications managers and consultants.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Branka Vucetic,Jinhong Yuan\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0470847573\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780470847572\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Wiley\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 06\/02\/2003\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 332\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.55lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 10.06h x 6.60w x 0.91d","brand":"Branka Vucetic","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":48013748601087,"sku":"9780470847572","price":158.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_c1b06d80-4684-4c1d-a0cc-eea159a39fb5.jpg?v=1767744524","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/space-time-coding-branka-vucetic-9780470847572","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
