I would like to thank all the people who have influenced me during my postgraduatestudies. To all of you, thank you very much. I would like to extend a very special thanksto a number of people that have made this dissertation possible.I especially wish to thank the ‘Universidad acional Autónoma de México’ (UNAM)for sponsoring my research at the University of Sheffield.I am indebted to my academic supervisor Dr. Rob Edwards from the EEE Department,at University of Sheffield for his guidance and support during the last two years of myresearch. He taught me how to do research without losing the practical prospective.I would also thank my Mexican tutor Dr. Salvador Landeros Ayala and Mtra. ArtemisaPedroza de Gortari from the Facultad de Ingenieria, UNAM for helping me to renewmy scholarship several times at the UNAM.A very special thanks to my first academic supervisor Prof. Colin Smythe from theComputer Science Department, at the University of Sheffield for supporting me andproviding the stimulation research environment in which this work has been carried out.I also thank him for accepting to review this dissertation.I acknowledge my tutor Prof. Graham Rees and my second supervisor Dr. MohammedBenaissa for providing general comments about my research.I need to specially thank Dr. Klaus-Dieter Schunke from the Institute forCommunications Technology, Braunschweig Technical University, Germany forproviding me with technical information for this research and his careful reviews ofsome of my papers.I would like also to thank the students from the Centre For Mobile CommunicationsResearch (C4MCR) group, University of Sheffield, who have made this a pleasant time.My special gratitude to my parents and brothers for their great help in backing me uppsychologically in Mexico throughout the period of this project.vi
