Description
This text introduces the basic principles underlying the analysis and design of communication systems - with an emphasis on digital communications. It features thorough coverage of all relevant topics in communications system design including source coding, channel coding, baseband and carrier modulation, channel distortion, channel equalization and sychronization. Emphasis is placed upon digital communications, but analog modulation techniques are covered in sufficient detail. Spread spectrum modulation is covered. A CD player and magnetic recording are presented as examples of systems that employ modern communications priciples. Over 450 problems and worked-out examples - involving applications to practical systems such as satellite communications systems, ionospheric channels and mobile radio channels - are also included. This work is designed for graduate-level courses in communications systems.
