Offshore Wind Farms: Technologies, Design and Operation provides
the latest information on offshore wind energy, one of Europe's
most promising and quickly maturing industries, and a potentially
huge untapped renewable energy source which could contribute
significantly towards EU 20-20-20 renewable energy generation
targets. It has been estimated that by 2030 Europe could have 150GW
of offshore wind energy capacity, meeting 14% of our power demand.
Offshore Wind Farms: Technologies, Design and Operation provides a
comprehensive overview of the emerging technologies, design, and
operation of offshore wind farms. Part One introduces offshore wind
energy as well as offshore wind turbine siting with expert analysis
of economics, wind resources, and remote sensing technologies. The
second section provides an overview of offshore wind turbine
materials and design, while part three outlines the integration of
wind farms into power grids with insights to cabling and energy
storage. The final section of the book details the installation and
operation of offshore wind farms with chapters on condition
monitoring and health and safety, amongst others.
Space-time block code (STBC) is a maturing technology to achieve
transmit diversity over fading channels. As the number of transmit
antennas increases beyond two, current approaches to design STBCs
either make trade off between the achievable diversity gain and the
code rate, or achieve both full diversity and full rate at the
expense of exponentially increased decoder complexity. This book
presents a new STBC design method that combines two real orthogonal
STBCs (O-STBC) with offset QAM. This approach is able to achieve
both full diversity and full code rate, yet allows simple real
symbol wise decoding whose complexity is independent of the number
of transmit antennas. This book provides a detailed analysis of the
impact of key system parameters on the error performance of the
scheme. A complete chapter is devoted to systematic design of the
two real O-STBCs for optimal error performance. This book should be
useful to any researcher who is in the field of MIMO
communications, or any engineering professional who is looking for
an effective STBC solution for practical implementation.
