Preface
During 12-15 of September 1999, 10th International Symposium on Personal,
Indoor and Mobile Radio Communications (PIMRC’99) was held in
Osaka Japan, and it was really a successful symposium that accommodated
more than 600 participants from more than 30 countries and regions. PIMRC
is really well organized annual symposium for wireless multimedia communication
systems, in which, various up-to-date topics are discussed in the invited
talk, panel discussions and tutorial sessions.
One of the unique features of the PIMRC is that PIMRC is continuing to
publish, from Kluwer Academic Publishers since 1997, a book that collects the
hottest topics discussed in PIMRC. In PIMRC’97, Invited talks were summarized
in “Wireless Communications –TDMA versus CDMA – (ISBN 0-7923-
8005-3),” and it was published just before PIMRC’97. This book was also
distributed to all the PIMRC’97 participants as a part of proceedings for the
conference. In PIMRC’98, extended version of the invited papers were summarized
in Wireless Multimedia Network Technologies (ISBN 0-7923-8633-7) 
and published in September 1999, which is almost the same timing for the PIMRC’99.
In the case of PIMRC’99, to produce more informative book, we have selected
topics that attracted many PIMRC’99 participants during the conference,
and invited prospective authors not only from the invited speakers but
also from tutorial speakers, panel organizers, 
panelists, and some other excellent PIMRC’99 participants.
This book is divided into two parts; Part I for new technical trends in wireless
multimedia communications, and Part II for trends in new wireless multimedia
communication systems that will be serviced in early 2000s.
In Part I, we have selected seven key technologies that strongly drive developments
of new wireless multimedia communication systems; wireless channel
modeling, space-time coding, coding for wireless, OFDM, multiuser receiver,
software radio, and, spatial and temporal communication theory.
In Chapter 1, Mr. Gregory D. Durgin and Prof. Theodore S. Rappaport
of MPRG, Virginia Tech, USA, propose a new spatial channel modeling techniques
that characterizes angle-of-arrival of multipath fading, including its application
to several practical wireless communication channels.
In Chapter 2, Dr. Ayman F. Nguib and Dr. Rob Calderbank of AT & T Labs-
Research, USA, provide overview of space-time coding techniques including
its associated signal processing framework which is attracting many 3G system engineers.
In Chapter 3, Prof. Ezio Biglieri and Prof. Giorgio Taricco of Politecnico di
Torino, Italy, and Prof. Giuseppe Caire of Institut Eurecom, Sophia Antipolis,
France, discuss how to select coding schemes considering not only the nature
of channels but also the applied techniques such as bit-interleaving, diversity and transmit power control.
In Chapter 4, Prof. Shinsuke Hara of Osaka University, Japan, addresses
OFDM techniques especially synchronization issues specific to the OFDM systems.
In Chapter 5, Prof. Markku Juntti and Mr. Kri Hooli of University of Oulu,
Finland, provides overview of the multiuser receivers for CDMA systems including
its basic principle, its combination with the multipath and antenna
combining techniques and its potential applications.
In Chapter 6, Dr. Shinichiro Haruyama of Advanced Telecommunication
Laboratory of SONY Computer Science Laboratories, Inc., Japan, addresses
overview of the development of software-defined radio technologies including
current activity of the SDR forum.
In Chapter 7, Prof. Ryuji Kohno of Yokohama National University, Japan,
who is also one of the editors for this book introduces a spatial and temporal
communication theory based on adaptive antenna array, such as channel
modeling, equalization and joint optimization of spatial and temporal signal
processing in both transmitter and receiver.
In Part II, because various new wireless systems are currently being standardized,
we have selected five topics for new wireless systems, i.e., Intelligent
Transport System, wireless data communication systems, wireless Internet,
digital TV broadcasting and IMT-2000.
In Chapter 8, Dr. Masayuki Fujise, Dr. Akihito Kato, Dr. Katsutoshi Sato
and Dr. Hiroshi Harada of Communications Research Laboratory (CRL), Ministry
of Posts and Telecommunications, Japan, present key technologies for
Intelligent Transport Systems currently developed by CRL; inter-vehicle and
road-vehicle communications, radio-on-fiber and software radio technologies.
In Chapter 9, Prof. Kaveh Pahlavan and Mr. Xinrong Li of Worcester Polytechnic
Institute, USA, and, Dr. Mika Ylianttila and Prof. Matti Latva-aho
of Universty of Oulu, Finland, present overview of the current status and fu-ture trends of wireless data communication systems such as wireless LAN, HomeRF and Bluetooth.
In Chapter 10, Dr. Li Fun Chang of AT & T Labs - Research, USA, provides
overview of the networking and mobility aspects of the wireless core networks,
e.g. mobile-IP based and EGPRS-based networks including basic concept of
mobile IP for both IPv4 and IPv6.
In Chapter 11, Prof. Makoto Itami of Science University of Tokyo, Japan,
addresses overview of the digital terrestrial TV broadcasting systems in EU,
USA and Japan including their feature comparison.
In Chapter 12, Prof. Fumiyuki Adachi of Tohoku University, Japan, and
Dr. Mamoru Sawahashi of NTT DoCoMo, Japan, discuss evolution of cellular
phone systems from voice services to multimedia services, IMT-2000 standardization
activities towards global 3G standard, and W-CDMA technologies
including some advanced technologies such as interference cancellation and adaptive array antenna.
Because each chapter includes basic concept and technical trend in addition
to the main topics, this book is suitable not only for the research engineers who
are developing 3G systems but also the graduate course students who would
like to know what is the cutting edge technologies, or managers in industries
to understand technical trends of the wireless world.
We, as the editors of this book, appreciate all the authors for their cooperation
in preparing for such up-to-date and informative contents.
Finally, the editors would like to appreciate those who helped us in editing
final version of the manuscript of this book. Especially, we would like to express
our sincere appreciation to Mr. Takumi Ito who spent a lot of time in
making final electric manuscript in LATEXformat including file conversion from
MsWord to LATEX, and Mr. Tomoaki Yoshiki who helped in creating index files.
