Abstract

The purpose of this chapter is to provide some necessary building blocks for the attachment transmission design and its applications. Included in this chapter are the OFDM modulation primer, reviews of some novel PHY techniques for wireless communications, and the related works of some wireless classic problems. As a promising technique, OFDM modulation transmits all the orthogonal carriers simultaneously, and thus it is capable of achieving high data rate and combating multipath fading. Since then, numerous cross-layer design built on PHY layer advances emerge to assist MAC layer protocols. Their main object is to reduce the coordination overhead. These techniques are also designed to solve some classic problems, such as the multichannel allocation, the hidden terminal and exposed terminal problems. At the end of this chapter, we also present some survey on these problems.
