"The book presents a strong analytical rigor and very interesting solutions to some of the most important challenges that wireless communication engineers face. All the analytical derivations and innovative results are well supported by a large set of figures which turns the book a very useful tool. It also presents an important revision of existing techniques, which clearly enrich its quality."— João Guerreiro, Instituto de Telecomunicações, Lisbon, Portugal
"The book covers a timely and important topic for current and future wireless communication systems." — Imad Barhumi, United Arab Emirates University, Al Ain, Abu Dhabi
"Advanced receiver designs for frequency selective channels was, from the beginning, a disruptive idea which opened horizons to up-until-then unimaginable data rates and system capacities in wireless systems. This book offers a fresh look at receiver designs, and looks at its combination with SC-FDE and OFDM, and the impact at the system-level. Receiver designs remains a pillar of high-speed systems beyond 4G which incorporate massive MIMO and network coding at the physical layer."—Mário Marques da Silva, Universidade Autónoma de Lisboa, Portugal
"There are not many books addressing the treatment of Doubly Selective Channels, and none devoted especially to the design of frequency domain receivers….this book appears to treat both block based single carrier and multicarrier communications, comparing them both in detail, on the contrary of most books devoted to multicarrier, with special emphasis on OFDM, although the growing importance of SC-FDE for uplink transmissions. This book seems to fill this void, providing a current view on the state-of-the-art." — Marco Alexandre Cravo Gomes, University of Coimbra, Portugal
"This book addresses the state of the art in OFDM and SC-FDE bock transmission schemes. It includes an easy to read overview accompanied by a formal definition of the block transmission schemes and channels models. The most interesting parts cover advanced analytical tools for channel estimation and receiver design for asynchronous networks and for multipath channels with strong Doppler effects. Asynchronous access is envisioned in the transmission schemes for future 5G systems. On the other end, Doppler effects are gaining importance as higher carrier frequencies and broader bands are used. Given the tutorial presentation, these physical layer models can be quite helpful in the design and analysis of cross-layer optimized systems."—Luis Bernardo, Instituto de Telecomunicações, Lisbon, Portugal
"Frequency-Domain Receiver Design for Doubly Selective Channels summarizes extensive research work on wireless communication between OFDM and SC-FDE and suggests the optimum approach. In so doing, it might revolutionize wireless communication technology."

'24-Hour Cities is a must-read for real estate professionals, economic and community developers, city leaders and urbanites of all stripes. More than that, it’s an engrossing read for anyone who is captivated by the speed, energy, and extravagant adaptability of the new age of 24-hour urbanity.' Richard Florida, author of the best-selling The Rise of the Creative Class.

‘Hugh Kelly’s 24-Hour Cities is a must-read for today’s real estate investors. It overflows with insights derived from the author’s long career as a leading commercial real estate researcher gifted with a keen sense of the wider social sciences. Hugh Kelly is an astute analyst of the forces that make cities vibrant; he artfully reminds us that successful cities are where people want to live, work, and play.’ Martha S. Peyton, Managing Director, TIAA-CREF
　
‘Hugh Kelly proves that a well written, insightful economics book is not an oxymoron. In 24-Hour Cities Kelly also validates an assertion made two decades ago and he connects today’s discussion on the future and shape of cities to its historical evolution. This is a must-read for urbanists and those who wish to be ahead of the curve.’ Raymond G. Torto, Lecturer, Harvard Graduate School of Design
　
‘Five-hundred years ago, in 1516, Sir Thomas More’s Utopia described the ideal city. We have not created it yet, and it is unlikely we will do so soon. In his formidable study 24-Hour Cities, Hugh Kelly analyzes the evolution of American cities since World War II and discusses the current leading models: the 24-hour city, the 9-to-5 city, the large market city. There can be no one model, no one ideal city, since socioeconomic factors and public preferences differ. The fourteen cities Kelly examines are not problem-free. He shows how the best excel at solving problems and meeting challenges – of business opportunities, culture, livability and innovation. They optimize human capital, financial capital, physical capital and social capital. 24-Hour Cities thoughtfully reviews the plus and minus factors that attract or repel various city occupants – the young, creative, entrepreneurial; the older, established, conventional; those seeking lowest cost vs. those willing to address higher costs for the benefits received. It will be a leading urban affairs text of 2016.’ Daniel Rose, Chairman, Rose Associates, Inc.
　
‘Hugh Kelly’s book 24-Hour Cities is a remarkable achievement. It puts empirical flesh on the bones of the 24-hour city hypothesis. Of the fourteen largest commercial real estate metro areas, he names and analyzes the seven that are 24-hour cities and the seven that are not. There is nothing fuzzy or vague about why some are and some are not. This is an important book for real estate analysts as well as urban scholars.’ Matthew Drennan, Visiting Professor of Urban Planning, UCLA
　
‘When RERC and Equitable Real Estate coined the term "24-hour cities" in the 1995 issue of Emerging Trends in Real Estate, we envisioned these markets – the cities where Americans could best live, work and play – as the places that would lead the fledgling commercial real estate recovery at that time. This concept was originated through interviews for Emerging Trends in Real Estate, which I was part of as president of RERC. As president of Situs RERC today, I am pleased to state that with this book, Hugh Kelly has truly embraced the concept of 24-hour cities and has taken it to another level by investigating what a 24-hour city currently means (versus 9-to-5 marketplaces). Based on his case studies and qualitative research, Kelly disputes and refutes old claims, examines socioeconomic and demographic trends, and artfully describes how 24-hour cities have evolved while competitively attracting physical, financial, and human capital. I congratulate him on this outstanding portrayal of what we only began to conceive of 20-some years ago.’ Ken Riggs, President, Situs RERC
　
‘Cities are an increasingly hot topic. Unfortunately, much of the commentary in recent books on cities is anecdotal or agenda driven. Therefore, Kelly’s original research and focus on 24-hour cities is most timely. Kelly is uniquely qualified to have written this seminal work, being actively engaged in both the private sector and academia. He is respected internationally. 24-Hour Cities is topical, fact driven and highly readable. It will set a new standard in our understanding of the modern city state.’ William McCarthy, CRE
