Cameron Coursey, who just released his second book with Artech House, The Practitioners Guide to Cellular IoT, describes what compelled him to write his book, and gives us a look at how he got into his field of IoT. What prompted me to write my book: There is a scene in the movie Apollo 13 …
One of the benefits of doing a blog each month, apart from helping to sell a few books is that it helps identify areas where technology is changing in interesting ways. The impact of optical technologies on radio networks is a case in point. A modern telecoms network is a complex mix of radio and …
As the number of malicious cyberattacks on smart utilities continue to rise, smart grid cybersecurity leaders are under immense pressure to implement intrusion detection alongside their prevention and response strategies. Not only would IDS systems deployed at key points of network vulnerability significantly reduce the severity of attacks and improve grid resilience, but they are …
Some industries are rethinking offshore manufacturing because of the pandemic and the corresponding material and product shortages. Local manufacturing has the benefit of reducing the dependence on other countries and simplifying the supply chain. In countries where costs are high, however, it may only make sense to manufacture locally by taking advantage of capabilities …

When Artech House authors write their books, we ask them what they want their readers to get out of the project. In this series, we show you what our authors, in their own words, wish to impart upon readers. Y.J. Liu, author of Introduction to OFDM Receiver Design and Simulation, describes what his book …
We followed up with Artech House author Hamid Tayebi to learn where his research has led him today, and how that relates back to his publication with us, Applications of Geographic Information Systems for Wireless Network Planning: “After writing the book, we began to work on an enhanced web tool. This time, we focused on …
Review by Marina Ruggieri This edited book is an interesting effort to provide a coherent framework to the In-Band Full-Duplex (IBFD) approach and its technological developments. IBFD has a potential in the future of connectivity technologies, even if the challenges that the 5G to 6G transition will pose might be somehow different from those expected …
In the early 1980’s, the Italian kitchen appliance company Zanussi launched a new Jetsystem washing machine coupled to what was to become one of the world’s most successful marketing campaigns – the ‘appliance of science’. It rhymes and has a double meaning but the three words also convey a message that science has been applied …
What did Galileo and Karl Jansky have in common? In 1610, Galileo looked up at the stars through his latest invention, a prototype for the modern day refractor telescope. In 1931 Karl Jansky accidentally discovered radio astronomy when investigating background static on Bell Labs short wave transatlantic radio phone service. Radio astronomers explore the outer …
