Sommario/riassunto

Adriaan van der Weel beschrijft de opkomst van de grote commerciële markt voor vermaakslectuur in de negentiende eeuw. Hij presenteert hier een nieuwe, boekhistorische kijk op de processen van democratisering en emancipatie in de Nederlandse samenleving van de negentiende eeuw. Nederland leerde in de negentiende eeuw massaal lezen door allerlei onderwijsvernieuwingen en initiatieven om het volk te verheffen. Als gevolg daarvan ontstond een grote commerciële markt voor ontspanningslectuur. Over de manier waarop die tot stand kwam en functioneerde is weinig bekend. Dat die markt bediend werd doo

Sommario/riassunto

Multi-Carrier Techniques for Broadband Wireless Communications provides an accessible introduction to OFDM-based systems from a signal processing perspective. The first part presents a concise treatment of some fundamental concepts related to wireless communications and multicarrier systems, while the second offers a comprehensive survey of recent developments on a variety of critical design issues. These include synchronization techniques, channel estimation methods, adaptive resource allocation and practical schemes for reducing the peak-to-average power ratio of the transmitted waveform.
