    Reviews & endorsements

    "Schwartz provides an excellent tutorial on modern digital mobile wireless communication systems, including a solid theoretical foundation as well as block diagram descriptions of systems deployed today or planned for the future. Highly recommended."
    CHOICE

    "[Five stars] I rarely award books top marks, but there is no doubt that this one fully deserves it. If you are looking for one book to both cover wireless fundamentals and give you details of the key wireless systems in use today, I'd strongly recommend this one."
