"This book provides a solid foundation for many of the most popular wireless communication systems and protocols in use today. It presents many clear and practical examples to help the reader understand the technical details and theory of the various methods presented. It will also quickly help anyone wanting to better understand the fundamentals of these communications systems and will provide practical guidance for developing RF components and systems. It is definitely a worthwhile read if you work with these types of systems and devices." --IEEE

Short-range Wireless Communication, Third Edition, describes radio theory and applications for wireless communication with ranges of centimeters to hundreds of meters. Topics covered include radio wave propagation, the theory of antennas and transmission lines, architectures of transmitters, and radio system design guidelines as a function of basic communication parameters, such as sensitivity, noise and bandwidth. Topics new to this edition include MIMO, metamaterials, inductance coupling for loop antennas, very high throughput Wi-Fi specifications, Bluetooth Low Energy, expanded coverage of RFID, wireless security, location awareness, wireless sensor networks, Internet of Things, millimeter wave and optical short-range communications, body area networks, energy harvesting, and more.

Engineers, programmers, technicians and sales management personnel who support short-range wireless products will find the book a comprehensive and highly readable source to boost on-the-job performance and satisfaction.
