A timely addition to the understanding of IMT-Advanced, this bookplaces particular emphasis on the new areas which IMT-Advancedtechnologies rely on compared with their predecessors. These latestareas include Radio Resource Management, Carrier Aggregation,improved MIMO support and Relaying.
Each technique is thoroughly described and illustrated beforebeing surveyed in context of the LTE-Advanced standards. The bookalso presents state-of-the-art information on the different aspectsof the work of standardization bodies (such as 3GPP and IEEE),making global links between them.
* Explores the latest research innovations to assess the futureof the LTE standard
* Covers the latest research techniques for beyond IMT-Advancedsuch as Coordinated multi-point systems (CoMP), Network Coding,Device-to-Device and Spectrum Sharing
* Contains key information for researchers from academia andindustry, engineers, regulators and decision makers working onLTE-Advanced and beyond
