The book introduces basic concepts, issues, research results, and applications of orthogonal frequency division multiple access (OFDMA), a new access technology for wireless networks. It will
be useful as an overview for graduate students and as a manual for researchers and practical engineers who work with OFDMA and other multi-user communication systems projects. Coverage
encompasses various techniques of effective resource management for OFDM/OFDMA-based wireless communication systems, including allocation of radio resources and utilization of scarce spectra.
Other topics include adaptive modulation, training sequence design in multi-user OFDM systems, MIMO beamforming schemes for multi-user access in OFDMA-SDMA, and OFDMA-based mobile WiMAX. Jiang
