Preface

Drawing on over 60 years of combined, award‐winning experience at the forefront of electronics and information technology, we bridge the critical gap between hardware and software. In today's competitive landscape, true innovation in wireless communication happens at the intersection of these two domains, and expertise in only one of them is no longer sufficient. This book offers a practical, hands‐on guide that provides a clear framework for this integration, written for engineers, programmers, and managers. We guide you through the entire technology stack—from the foundational hardware of electronic circuits and devices to the architecture of complex systems, and from low‐level embedded software to sophisticated server platforms and mobile applications. With an emphasis on practical applications over dense theory, this book is rich with real‐world design examples and insightful discussions, providing the comprehensive, cross‐disciplinary knowledge required to develop superior products. It is designed to equip you with the understanding needed to build the robust, efficient, and innovative wireless solutions of the future. For those wishing to explore specific topics in greater detail, each chapter provides curated bibliographic references for further study.

This book is organized into 4 sections and 12 chapters, covering Wireless Standards, Hardware Design, Software Design, and Putting into Practice.

The opening section, Wireless Standards, consists of Chapter 1
