Reconfigurable Radio Systems: Network Architectures and Standards delves into the cutting-edge technology and standards of reconfigurable radio systems. Authored by Maria Stella Iacobucci, this 304-page book offers a comprehensive overview from self-organizing networks and cognitive radio concepts to advanced reconfigurable architectures for both network and terminal designs.

Published in July 2013 by Wiley, the book provides a standards-based view of the development, evolution, techniques, and potential future scenarios for deploying reconfigurable radio systems. After introducing radiomobile and radio systems utilized in access networks, it explores cognitive radio concepts and their capabilities, essential foundations for reconfigurable radio systems.

The text then delves into self-organizing network features outlined in 3GPP standards and details the first standard based on cognitive radio, IEEE 802.22. It further examines the ETSI reconfigurable radio systems functional architecture and the IEEE 1900.4 standard for reconfigurable radio. Concluding with a forward-looking perspective, the book presents new scenarios and future visions that reconfigurable radio systems might bring.

Key features include:

• An examination of current standards based on cognitive and reconfigurable radio
• Analysis of future deployment scenarios
