Smart Antennas and Electromagnetic Signal Processing in Advanced Wireless Technology : with Artificial Intelligence Application and Coding (River Publishers Series in Communications)

The book addresses the current demand for a scientific approach to advanced wireless technology and its future developments, including the current move from 4G to 5G wireless systems (2020), and the future to 6G wireless systems (2030). It gives a clear and in-depth presentation of both antennas and the adaptive signal processing that makes antennas powerful, maneuverable, and necessary for advanced wireless technology. Moving towards the increasing demand for a scientific approach to smart antennas, the book presents electromagnetic signal processing techniques to both control the antenna beam and to track the moving station, which is required for effective, fast, dynamic beamforming. In addition to presenting new, memory efficient and fast algorithms for smart antennas, another helpful feature of the book is the inclusion of complete listings of MATLABTM codes for powerful techniques such as Artificial Intelligence (AI) beamforming, Analytical Phase Shift technique and the traditional Least Mean Square method, The student, researcher or engineer may readily use these codes to gain confidence in understanding, as well as to develop and deploy powerful, new smart antenna techniques. The first part of the book presents a comprehensive description and analysis of basic antenna theory, starting from short dipole antennas to array antennas. This section also includes important concepts related to antenna parameters, electromagnetic wave propagation, the Friis equation, the radar equation and wave reflection and transmission through media. The second part of the book focuses on smart antennas, commencing from a look at traditional approach to beam forming before getting into the details of smart antennas. Complete derivation and description of the techniques for electromagnetic field signal processing techniques for adaptive beam forming are presented. Many new and research ideas are included in this section. A novel method for fast, low memory and accurate, maneuverable
