Abstract

The importance of wireless communication is undisputed, and it will surely continue to change and evolve because of the explosive growth of wireless personal mobile and cellular communications since the late 1980s. These growth areas, and they are enjoying the fastest growth rate in the telecommunications industry adding customers at a rate of 20–30% more each year as shown in Figs. 7.1 and 7.2 [1]
