CDMA based cellular systems have been widely deployedand CDMA is selected as the air interface ofthird-generation (3G) cellular system (W-CDMA,cdma2000, TD-SCDMA). With the exponential growth rateof demand, understanding the principles of design andanalysis of large CDMA systems has become more andmore vital for both receiver designers and networkoperators. However, for large networks, receiversutilizing advanced signal processing techniques havecomplexity that scales with the system size.Furthermore, performance analysis of large systemsquickly becomes analytically intractable. With theapplication of the mathematical theory on randommatrices, this book studies the problems oflow-complexity multiuser receiver design andperformance analysis (both information-theoretic anduncoded) for various CDMA systems in the large systemregime. This book should be of great interest toresearchers and practicing engineers in wirelesscommunication. In addition, as this book explores theexciting cross discipline of random matrices andwireless communication, it will also be useful formathematicians wishing to see how advancedmathematics shape today's engineering practice.
