Millimeter wave wireless communications is the next breakthrough frontier for wireless networks in the mobile cellular industry, and for emerging wireless local area networks, personal area networks, and vehicular communications.  Completely new products, systems, theories, and devices will be created to deliver mobile data rates of many Gigabits per second, thousands of times greater than today’s cellular and WiFi networks. Millimeter Wave Wireless Communication Systems is the first comprehensive treatment of all technical elements of millimeter wave wireless communications systems, and provides a unique resource that fuses key concepts from communications, circuits, antennas, propagation, and emerging global standards into one complete, easy-to-read textbook. Written by four leading practitioners in the emerging field of millimeter wave wireless communications, this book allows engineers in both industry and academia to quickly become acquainted with the fundamentals needed to implement and explore the untapped potential of the higher spectrum that will provide unprecedented products and applications, never before imagined in the wireless industry.

  • The first fully comprehensive guide to cutting-edge 60 GHz wireless design
  • Prepares engineers to work with tomorrow's most important emerging wireless standards, including IEEE 802.15.3c, Wireless HD, and ECMA/WiMedia
  • Covers all facets of 60 GHz wireless design, from channel to antenna to receiver
  • By four pioneers in 60 GHz research and implementation, including Ted Rappaport, leader of UT Austin's renowned Wireless Networking and Communications Group
