Efficient transmission and reception methods for future wireless communications systems

无线个人通信已经成为对我们的社会产生巨大影响的一项关键技术。由于市场对高移动性、可广泛访问的多媒体通信的浓厚兴趣，无线蜂窝和局域网目前正在经历显著增长。为了满足日益增长的消费者需求，当前的无线通信研究致力于：(I)增加容量(即增加特定地理区域内的移动客户端数量)；(Ii)降低复杂性(硬件和软件)；(Iii)通过接收器和/或发射器的智能处理来提高性能。以消费者为基础的移动和便携式通信系统的短期和长期增长与上述四个目标的实现密切相关。

Wireless personal communication has emerged as a key technology that dramatically impacts our society. Wireless cellular and local area networks are currently experiencing significant growth driven by a strong market interest for highly mobile, widely accessible, multimedia communications. To address the ever-increasing consumer needs and demands, current research on wireless communications strives to: (i) Increase Capacity (i.e., increase number of mobile clients in a given geographical area); (ii) Reduce complexity (both hardware and software); (iii) Improve performance through intelligent processing at the receiver and/or transmitter. The short and long-term growth of consumer-based mobile and portable communication systems is tied closely to the achievement of the above four objectives.
