  • Wireless Sensor Networks
Reviews & Statements

Computer scientists and engineers from around the world present 19 chapters on recent developments in broadband wireless access networks, including mobile standards LTE (RELEASE 8), LTE-Advanced, and IEEE 802.16m. They present technologies that work together to carry out coordinated functions and theory and applications related to the improvement and development of broadband wireless access networks. They cover PHY layer issues, including propagation models, delay, and throughput for WiMAX in urban environments; aperiodic ICIC-oriented (intercell interference coordination) and CSI (channel state information).

Editor/Author Biographies
Raúl Aquino Santos graduated from the University of Colima with a BE in Electrical Engineering, received his MS degree in Telecommunications from the Centre for Scientific Research and Higher Education in Ensenada, Mexico in 1990. He holds a PhD from the Department of Electrical and Electronic Engineering of the University of Sheffield, England. Since 2005, he has been with the College of Telematics, at the University of Colima, where he is currently a Research-Professor in telecommunications networks. His current research interests include wireless and sensor networks.

Victor Rangel Licea received the B.Eng (Hons) degree in Computer Engineering at the Engineering Faculty from the National Autonomous University of Mexico (UNAM) in 1996, the M.Sc in Telematics at the University of Sheffield, UK, in 1998, and the Ph.D. in performance analysis and traffic scheduling in cable networks in 2002, from the University of Sheffield. Since 2002, he has been with the School of Engineering, UNAM, where he is currently a Research-Professor in telecommunications networks. His research focuses on fixed, mesh, and mobile broadband wireless access networks, QoS over IP, traffic shaping, scheduling, handoff procedures, and performance optimization for IEEE 802.16 (wimax)-based networks. He has published more than 40 research papers in journals and international conferences, as well as directed more than 35 research master and bachelor theses. He currently has 1 Ph.D. student, 1 post-doc student, and 8 master students. Dr. Rangel has participated in the Technical Program Committee (TPC) and as a reviewer in more than 10 international conferences. He is a member of the National Research System (SNI).

Arthur Edwards received his master’s degree in Education from the University of Houston in 1985. He has been a researcher-professor at the University of Colima since 1985, where he has served in various capacities. He has been with the School of Telematics since 1998. His primary areas of research are Computer Assisted Language Learning (CALL), distance learning, collaborative learning, multimodal leaning and mobile learning. The primary focus of his research is presently in the area of mobile collaborative learning.
