PREFACE
The rapid growth in mobile communications has led to an increasing demand for wide-
band high data rate communications services. In recent years, Distributed Antenna
Systems (DAS) has emerged as a promising candidate for future (beyond 3G or 4G)
mobile communications, as illustrated by projects such as FRAMES and FuTURE. The
architecture of DAS inherits and develops the concepts of pico- or micro-cell systems,
where multiple distributed antennas or access points (AP) are connected to and con-
trolled by a central unit. DAS owns the property of open wireless architecture (OWA),
which is one of the key features of future wireless communication systems. Due to its
open architecture, DAS can be assigned new and more flexible radio resource manage-
ment, and thus outperforms conventional centralized wireless communication systems.
These distributed antenna techniques are being studied intensively for cellular sys-
tems, and are especially suitable for ad hoc and mesh networks due to their inherent
distributed characteristics. However, many topics involving the physical layer and
(especially) high-efficiency protocols for DAS still need further investigation.
Distributed Antenna Systems: Open Architecture for Future Wireless Communica-
tions is the first book to provide readers with a comprehensive technical guide to
the fundamental concepts, recent advances, and open issues of DAS. The subject is
explored via various key challenges in numerous diverse scenarios including archi-
tecture, capacity, connectivity, scalability, medium access control, scheduling, dynamic
channel assignment, and cross-layer optimization. The primary focus of this book is on
conceptintroduction,effectiveprotocolproposal,systemintegration,performanceanal-
ysistechniques,simulation,experimentation,and,moreimportantly,futuredirectionsin
DASresearch.Theobjectiveofthebookistoserveasavaluablereferenceforscientists,
facultymembers,researchers,students,engineers,andresearchstrategistsinthisrapidly
evolving field.
This book is organized in three parts:
(cid:1) Part I: Channel and Theoretical Issues
(cid:1) Part II: MAC and Protocols
(cid:1) Part III: Case Studies and Applications
In Part I, DAS fundamentals, including channel models for DAS and theoretical
issues for DAS are introduced, which enable the readers to understand the capacity
ofDASwithdifferentstructures.PartIIconcentratesontheMACandprotocolsforDAS,
including distributed signal processing, optimal resource allocation, cooperative MAC
protocols,cross-layerdesign,anddistributedorganization.PartIIIillustratescasestudies
and applications of DAS, including experiments, RF engineering, and applications.
