The emerging massive/large-scale multiple-input multiple-output (LS-MIMO) systems that
rely on very large antenna arrays have become a hot topic of wireless communications …

Nowadays, wireless sensor network (WSN) users are demanding more and more in terms of
choice and diversity of applications. Hence, as the diversity of applications is increasing, it is …

The 2nd Edition of Optical Wireless Communications: System and Channel Modelling with
MATLAB® with additional new materials, is a self-contained volume that provides a concise …

We develop and analyze low-complexity cooperative diversity protocols that combat fading
induced by multipath propagation in wireless networks. The underlying techniques exploit …

Transmit diversity generally requires more than one antenna at the transmitter. However,
many wireless devices are limited by size or hardware complexity to one antenna. Recently …

Focusing on two-antenna infrastructure relays employed for coverage extension, we
develop hybrid techniques that switch opportunistically between full-duplex and half-duplex …

Cooperative diversity has been recently proposed as a way to form virtual antenna arrays
that provide dramatic gains in slow fading wireless environments. However, most of the …

Coding strategies that exploit node cooperation are developed for relay networks. Two basic
schemes are studied: the relays decode-and-forward the source message to the destination …

Multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) technology constitutes a breakthrough in the design of
wireless communications systems, and is already at the core of several wireless standards …

Dynamic mapping (matching and scheduling) heuristics for a class of independent tasks
using heterogeneous distributed computing systems are studied. Two types of mapping …
