• Sommario/riassunto: An analysis of the physics of multiantenna systems Multiple-Input Multiple-Output (MIMO) technology is one of the current hot topics in emerging wireless technologies. This book fills the important need for an authoritative reference on the merits of MIMO systems based on physics and provides a sound theoretical basis for its practical implementation. The book also addresses the important issues related to broadband adaptive processing. Written by three internationally known researchers, Physics of Multiantenna Systems and Broadband Processing: Provides a thorough discussion of t
