Fundamentals of resource allocation in wireless networks: theory and algorithms

The wireless industry is in the midst of a fundamental shift from providing voice-only services to offering customers an array of multimedia services, including a wide variety of audio, video and data communications capabilities. Future wireless networks will be integrated into every aspect of daily life, and therefore could affect our life in a magnitude similar to that of the Internetand cellular phones. This monograph demonstrates that these emerging applications and directions require fundamental understanding on how to design and control wireless networks that lies far beyond what the currently existing theorycan provide. It is shown that mathematics is the key technology to cope with central technical problems in the design of wireless networks since the complexity of the problem simply precludes the use of engineering common sense aloneto identify good solutions. Provides the tools for better understanding the fundamental tradeoffs and interdependencies in wireless networks Shows that mathematics is the key technology to cope with central technical problems in the design of wireless networks
