This book introduces the various approaches and tools used for modelling different propagation environments and lays the foundation for developing a unified theoretical framework for future integrated communication networks. > This book introduces the various approaches and tools used for modelling different propagation environments and lays the foundation for developing a unified theoretical framework for future integrated communication networks. In the case of each type of network, the book uses basic concepts of physics, mathematics, geometry and probability theory to study the impact of the dimension and shape of the propagation environment and relative transmit-receive position on the information flow. The book provides an introduction into wireless communication systems and networks and their applications. For both systems and networks, the basic hard (encoder, modulator, etc.) and soft components (information, signal, etc.) are discussed through schematic block diagrams. Ne.
