Foreword

by Pin Zhang

Wireless communication has become an indispensable basic method for the transmission and exchange of human language, text, pictures, images, data, symbols and other information. In the past 100 years, it has witnessed and promoted human progress and social development, and it will continue to play a role in information interaction in the process of human progress toward intelligent communication.

The invention and application of the telegraph in the mid-19th century fundamentally changed the way of mail delivery and remote information sharing for thousands of years. The continuous advancement of wireless communication technology in the 20th century had made radio broadcasting, fax and television widely popular. People sitting at home can know what major events are happening around the world, and they can listen and appreciate the songs and dances, customs and historical culture and arts from all parts of the world. Especially in the recent decades, with the integrated development of modern information and communication technologies (ICT) such as wireless communication and computer networks, the interconnection of people has achieved global roaming, always online, which can be described as thousands of miles in a flash and horizons within easy reach.

Behind the provision of this convenient service is the huge investment in ICT infrastructure and the continuous development of wireless communication network technology for decades, including cellular mobile communication networks, wireless local area networks, wireless sensor networks and the Internet of things. The communication network exists in the the form of a giant system and continues to explode. Therefore, whether as an individual or as a group, it is difficult for people to control this system alone or master all technologies by using ones own power. Then, how can a student or engineering technician in the ICT professional field with limited time and energy quickly understand the wireless communication network technology? In addition to the necessary professional basic training, it is essential for them to find a few comprehensive and professional technical books to read. This is exactly the purpose for which Professor Shilin Wang led the compilation of Wireless Communication Network Technology and Evolution.

Professor Wang and the other coauthors of this book have long been engaged in teaching and scientific research in related fields such as wireless communications and computer networks in universities. They also have rich experience in the design and product development of wireless mobile communications systems in the industry. Based on a large number of cutting-edge technical literature and academic books on wireless communication networks, they combined their own teachings and practical experiences, with full scanning and focused analysis, to explain the wireless communication network technologies past and present, design ideas, key points, application methods, evolution processes and reasons. The contents of this book mainly focus on cellular mobile communication, wireless local area network (Wi-Fi), and wireless Internet of things (NB-IoT, eMTC).

The beginning of this book goes straight to the technical topic without any deviations. Each chapter begins with a brief summary, and the narrative style of this teaching plan is reflected in the subsequent chapters. This is one of the key features of this book.

The authors of this book closely follow the trends of the world and systematically introduce the technical principles and evolution of cellular communication networks, wireless local area networks and the Internet of Things. The three network technologies are integrated, and both common technologies and individual technologies are written, so that readers can clearly recognize the similarities and differences of the three networks. There are not only basic principles and formulas but also technical analysis, intuitive illustrations and interpretations, as well as experiences and cases throughout the book, thus explaining the profound things in a simple way. I believe this book can bring readers a wealth of knowledge and enjoyment as well as a distinctive reading experience. This book is very useful for engineering and technical personnel and university students.
