Stochastic Geometry for Wireless Networks
Covering point process theory, random geometric graphs and coverage processes, this rigorous introduction to stochastic geometry will enable you to obtain powerful, general estimates and bounds of wireless network performance and make good design choices for future wireless architectures and protocols that efficiently manage interference effects. Practical engineering applications are integrated with mathematical theory, with an understanding of probability the only prerequisite. At the same time, stochastic geometry is connected to percolation theory and the theory of random geometric graphs and accompanied by a brief introduction to the R statistical computing language. Combining theory and hands-on analytical techniques with practical examples and exercises, this is a comprehensive guide to the spatial stochastic models essential for modelling and analysis of wireless network performance.

Positioning in Wireless Communications Systems
Positioning in Wireless Communications Systems explains the principal differences and similarities of wireless communications systems and navigation systems. It discusses scenarios that are critical for dedicated navigation systems such as the Global Positioning System (GPS), and which motivate the use of positioning based on terrestrial wireless communication systems. The book introduces approaches for determining parameters that are dependent on the position of the mobile terminal and also discusses iterative algorithms to estimate and track positions. Models for radio propagation and user mobility are important for performance investigations and assessments using computer simulations. Thus, channel and mobility models are explored, particularly focusing on critical navigation environments such as urban and indoor scenarios. Positioning in Wireless Communications Systems examines advanced algorithms such as hybrid data fusion of satellite navigation, and positioning with wireless communications and cooperative positioning among mobile terminals. The performance of the discussed positioning techniques are explored on the basis of already existing and operable terrestrial wireless communication systems such as GSM, UMTS, or LTE and how positioning issues are fixed in respective standards is shown. Written by industry experts working at the cutting edge of technological development, the authors are well-placed to give an excellent viewpoint on this topic, enabling in-depth coverage of current developments.
Key features Unique in its approach to dealing with a heterogeneous system approach, different cell structures, and signal proposals for future communications systems. Covers hybrid positioning investigating how GNSS and wireless communications positioning complement each other. Applications and exploitation of positioning information are discussed to show the benefits of including this information in several parts of a wireless communications system.

Recent Advances in Automatic Modulation Classification Technology: Methods, Results, and Prospects
As an essential technology for spectrum sensing and dynamic spectrum access, automatic modulation classification (AMC) is a critical step in intelligent wireless communication systems, aiming at automatically recognizing the modulation schemes of received signals. In practice, AMC is challenging due to the influence of communication environment and signal parameters, such as unknown channels, noise, symbol rate, signal length, and sampling frequency. In this survey, we investigated a series of typical AMC methods, including key technology, performance comparisons, advantages, challenges, and future key development directions. According to the methodology and processing flow, AMC methods are divided into three categories: likelihood‐based (Lb) methods, feature‐based (Fb) methods, and deep learning methods. The technical details of various types of methods are introduced and discussed, such as likelihood distributions, artificial features, classifiers, and network structures. Then, extensive experimental results of state‐of‐the‐art AMC methods on public or simulated datasets are compared and analyzed. Despite the achievements that have been made, there are still limitations of the individual methods, including generalization capability, reasoning efficiency, model complexity, and robustness. In the end, we summarized the severe challenges faced by AMC and key future research directions.

Advances in terahertz communications accelerated by photonics
This Review covers the state-of-the-art technologies on photonics-based terahertz communications, which are compared with competing technologies based on electronics and free-space optical communications. Future prospects and challenges are also discussed.
Almost 15 years have passed since the initial demonstrations of terahertz (THz) wireless communications were made using both pulsed and continuous waves. THz technologies are attracting great interest and are expected to meet the ever-increasing demand for high-capacity wireless communications. Here, we review the latest trends in THz communications research, focusing on how photonics technologies have played a key role in the development of first-age THz communication systems. We also provide a comparison with other competitive technologies, such as THz transceivers enabled by electronic devices as well as free-space lightwave communications.
