> *Introduction:*
>
> In the ever-evolving telecommunication industry, smart mobile computing
> devices have become increasingly affordable and powerful, leading to
> significant growth in the number of advanced mobile users and their
> bandwidth demands. Technological improvements alone would not be able to
> keep up with this explosion of mobile broadband traffic. Thus, even though
> LTE-Advanced is seen as a dominant player in offering support for mobile
> broadband and broadcast technologies, making use of the Digital Dividend
> spectrum allocation for mobile networks could bring game-changing benefits
> to all parties involved. Bringing together broadband, broadcast, and
> cellular technologies for global consumers could contribute to the
> economical, social, and technological benefits of mobile devices.
>
> *The Overall Objectives of the Book*
>
> This book aims to present a survey of the broadband, broadcast, and
> cellular coexistence solutions that are proposed in the literature. The
> book addresses these coexistence problems, which could appear at different
> levels, e.g., physical characteristics, open access, technology-neutrality,
> coverage obligations (under-served or unserved remote areas), efficient use
> of the spectrum resources (Digital Dividend), minimization of the
> interference problems, socio-economic characteristics, healthcare,
> education, energy, etc.
>
> *Prospective audience*
>
> The prospective audience of this book will be undergraduate students,
> postgraduate students, and researchers who are interested in the emerging
> area of broadband, broadcast and cellular technologies. The book could be
> considered a link between academia and industry. Academia could benefit by
> having a general view of the existing research issues and ideas on the
> mentioned topics, and on the other side, the industry could benefit by
> applying ideas or acknowledge issues in real-world applications.
>
> *Recommended topics include, but not limited to:*
>
> Efficient and Productive usage of the spectrum resources
>
> - Solutions and challenges
>
> - Socio-economic characteristics
>
> - Impact on education, healthcare, and technology
>
> - Open-access, technology neutrality, coverage obligations
>
> - Mobility challenges and management
>
> Broadband, broadcast, and cellular technologies coexistence
>
> - Solutions and challenges
>
> - Interoperability aspects
>
> - Physical characteristics
