Initial Synchronisation of Mimo Transceivers: Cdma, Mc-cdma, Ofdm, Uwb and Cooperative Systems

by Lajos L. Hanzo, S-H Won, Lie-Liang Yang

Numerous wireless systems have adopted MIMOs(Multiple-in & Multiple-out smart antennas), yet no comprehensive book which examines MIMO-aided transceiver synchronization issues exists.  This book thoroughly investigates and analysis performance characteristics of various code acquisition schemes including Single-Carrier (SC) and Multi-Carrier (MC) Code Division Multiple Access schemes. This book also discuss the clock- and carrier-synchronization of both classic single-Carrier and multi-carrier OFDM systems, which found their way into both the 3rd generation LTE and another set of wireless communication IEEE standards (WiFi, WiMax, etc.)
