It provided the current state of antenna array research and described how an array of antennas may be used to help meet the ever-growing demand of increased channel capacity for wireless mobile communications services. The amount and the kind of feedback I received on the subject, particularly from graduate students and practicing engineers, indicated to me that there is a need for a more comprehensive source of this material than a journal article. One day in late 1998, I received an e-mail from Dr. Alexander D. Poularikas, who coordinates the Electrical Engineering and Signal Processing series for CRC Press, inviting me to be the editor of a handbook covering the fundamental developments of this field so that the engineers in practice or the ones who want to start in this area have a good source to guide them. I accepted his invitation and prepared a list of topics to be covered by the handbook. Because the handbook was meant to be a major reference source on this subject, I invited the leading experts in the field to contribute material on topics of their special interest. I am very excited about the final outcome and trust that you share my enthusiasm as I briefly describe what the handbook has to offer. The handbook has successfully brought together every aspect of antennas in wireless communications with 26 chapters filled with the latest research and development results compiled by leading researchers in a manner that is easy to follow. The material has been developed logically, requiring no prerequisite and thus making it extremely useful not only for researchers and practicing engineers as a reference book but also for newcomers as a great source of learning. It is a unique book covering all facets of antennas for wireless communications providing detailed treatment of cellular systems, antenna design techniques, practical antennas, phased-array technology, theory and implementation of smart antennas, and interaction of EM radiation with the human body. It contains more than 1200 references for the readers to probe further. The handbook would be useful for • Practicing electrical engineers, in general, and communication engineers, in particular, as a ref- erence book • Academics in the area of mobile communications, signal processing, antenna theory, and smart antennas • Graduate students and researchers in this area • Antenna designers in general • Those who are fascinated by the field of mobile communications and smart antennas The chapters in the book have been selected to provide coverage of different topics. However, some overlap between various chapters has been allowed to provide discussion from a different point of view. © 2002 by CRC Press LLC The handbook has been organized into six parts outlined as follows: A Wireless communication systems and channel characteristics B Antenna technology and numerical methods C Antenna developments and practical antennas D Smart antennas and array theory E Implementation of smart antenna systems F Electromagnetic radiation and the human body Chapters 1 through 4 are devoted to wireless communications systems and channel characterization. Chapter 1, “Cellular Systems,” presents cellular fundamentals by describing the working of mobile com- munications systems and discussing concepts of multiple access schemes, channel reuse, channel alloca- tion and assignments, and handoff and power control.
