Evolution of Wireless Communication Ecosystems Understand a world transformed by wireless communication with this groundbreaking guide
Since the advent of the internet, few technologies have proven more transformative than wireless communication. Never have we lived in a more comprehensively connected world, with the cloud and the coming sixth generation (6G) of wireless technology creating a vast and interconnected communications infrastructure. Global citizens of this newly interconnected reality are grappling like never before with its many challenges.
Evolution of Wireless Communication Ecosystems provides readers with a history of wireless communication and a thorough overview of emerging frontiers. It traces wireless communication from the first generation through to the current fifth before surveying the current state of wireless technology and the ongoing research into 6G. The result is a book that understands wireless communication for the first time as an ecosystem, endlessly interconnected, growing, and boundlessly complex, but made intelligible by this highly readable introduction.
Readers will also find:
- Detailed explanations of the journey starting from 1G to 6G
- Descriptions the infrastructure of 4G, 5G, and 6G systems, this all-connected communication ecosystem, the sub-components of this ecosystem, and the relationship among them
- Depictions of events seen in the capillaries of the communication echo system that show switching techniques, modulation, and multiplexing techniques
- Coverage of access techniques, protocols, the methods used in M2M and IoT connections at the endpoints, and security issues that show how they are an integral part of wireless communication infrastructure
Evolution of Wireless Communication Ecosystems from 1G to 6G is an essential reference for wireless and telecommunications professionals, as well as researchers interested in 6G or other emerging wireless technologies.
