To meet the immensely higher data rate, reliability, adaptability and traffic demands in the 5G-Advanced/6G era, novel communication frameworks are rapidly emerging to fully utilize electromagnetic waves. One area is Electromagnetic Signal and Information Theory (ESIT), an interdisciplinary framework to evaluate the fundamental limits of wireless communications by integrating deterministic electromagnetic wave (EM) theory, signal processing and statistical information theory. Electromagnetic Signal and Information Theory: From Synergizing Two Realms to Evolution of Next Generation Communications provides a comprehensive coverage of topics ranging from theoretical foundations to advanced technologies to emerging trends, as well as information on standardization, offering valuable insights and guidance to university researchers and industry professionals. With contributions from leading experts in the field and a focus on cutting-edge research areas such as reconfigurable intelligent surfaces and holographic MIMO, the book addresses the audience's need for in-depth understanding, practical applications, and future directions in wireless communications.
