This book addresses the emerging technology for Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiple Access (OFDMA), covering OFDMA physical layer as well as network technology. The book also includes information on IEEE 802.16e and WiMAX networks and also offers a comparison with other OFDMA technologies. OFDMA is the fastest growing area in the wireless marketplace, and the backbone of systems used in WiMAX. WiMAX is the technology that enables wireless users to communicate at any time from any location without having to find a WiFi hotspot.

5.0 out of 5 stars One guide for 4G, March 24, 2009
This review is from: Mobile Broadband - Including WiMAX and LTE (Hardcover)
It is an impressive work. The book is indeed timely. To my knowledge there is no other work in the field covering all aspects of mobile broadband wireless. I believe that it will find an appreciative audience among people who'd like a reference book that encompasses both wireless and standards effort, graduate students and people who are very familiar with wireless but haven't followed the recent developments in 4th generation (WiMAX, LTE and beyond) and related technologies (IMS, Cognitive Radio, etc).

5.0 out of 5 stars A comprehensive course on 4G, June 27, 2009
By 
Wireless (San Diego, CA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Mobile Broadband - Including WiMAX and LTE (Hardcover)
I found the book extremely comprehensive with its coverage and details in some section. It can be handy to grasp the 4G, to refer a quick topic in WiMAX, LTE standards, or to study MIMO, OFDMA and all IP networking in detail. I agree the reviewers above that there is a fine balance between qualitative ideas and mathematical basis behind key results. All in all, it is a timely book for networking people to understand the two prong ways of 4G; wimax and lte and also to see the other standards based on OFDMA such as cognitive radio, 802.22, 802.16j, 802.20, umb, etc.

5.0 out of 5 stars good reference, March 29, 2009
By 
Kim (San Diego, CA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Mobile Broadband - Including WiMAX and LTE (Hardcover)
Overall, I am pleased with its content. It is clearly written. The topics are covered in a nice way that is comprehensive. The treatment of topics is balanced. Some topics are overemphasized but that may be necessary for people who are beginners in the field.

Many books are available in this field, but I believe this one is very comprehensive, especially emphasizing wimax and Lte technology no other book has done.
