Page 16 - Antennas for Base Stations in Wireless Communications

Acknowledgments

We are very excited about the publication of Antennas for Base Stations
in Wireless Communications. This project has presented many chal-
lenges, such as gathering the ideas needed to write a unique book,
organizing the content effectively, finding the appropriate contributors,
working on agreements, consolidating all the chapters and moderating
the book’s contents, and writing our own chapters. Our grateful thanks
are due to all the authors for contributing chapters to this book. They
have expended much effort and time to complete this hard task within
a very short period. Also, we would like to take this opportunity to
thank all the people involved in this project, especially Wendy Rinaldi,
Editorial Director at McGraw Hill, for her professional support and
patience to make this project a huge success. Finally, we would like to
thank our families, namely, Chen’s wife Lin Liu and his twin sons, Shi
Feng and Shi Ya, as well as Luk’s wife Jennifer and his sons, Alec and
Lewis, for their understanding and support when we had to work on this
project past midnight and during many weekends and holidays.
