Short-range communications is one of the most relevant as well as diversified fields of en-
deavour in wireless communications. As such, it has been a subject of intense research and
development worldwide, particularly in the last decade. There is no reason to believe that this
trend will decline. On the contrary, the rapidly crystallizing vision of a hyper-connected world
will certainly strengthen the role of short-range communications in the future. Concepts such
as wireless social networks, Internet of things, car communications, home and office network-
ing, wireless grids and personal communications heavily rely on short-range communications
technology.
