Book excerpt: A warped 5-dimensional SU(2){sub L} x SU(2){sub R} x U(1){sub B-L} model has been recently proposed to implement electroweak symmetry breaking through boundary conditions, without the presence of a Higgs boson. This proposal is based on the Randall-Sundrum hierarchy solution. We use precision electroweak data to constrain the general parameter space of this model. Our analysis includes independent L and R gauge couplings, radiatively induced boundary gauge kinetic terms, and all higher order corrections from the curvature of the 5-d space. We show that this setup can be brought into good agreement with the precision electroweak data for typical values of the parameters. However, this set of parameters leads to violation of unitarity in gauge boson scattering, and hence this model is excluded in its present form. Assuming that unitarity can be restored in a modified version of this scenario, we consider the collider signatures. It is found that new spin-1 states will be observed at the LHC and measurement of their properties would identify this model. However, the spin-2 graviton Kaluza-Klein resonances, which are a hallmark of the Randall-Sundrum model, are too weakly coupled to be detected.
