Description
This introduction to digital data transmission, modulation, anderror-correction coding, together with the underlying communicationand information theory is an all-inclusive text suitable for allthose connected with Mechanical Engineering or Computer Science.Equal emphasis is given to underlying mathematical theory andengineering practice. Not meant to be an encyclopedic treatise, thebook offers strong, accessible pedagogy.
This Second Edition presents enhanced explanations of keyideas as well as additional examples and problems. It also providesgreatly expanded coverage of wireless communication, which has seenexponential growth since the release of the first edition.
* A pedagogocal approach aimed at the 5th year EE student
* A balance of theory with engineering and design
* Integration of important topics such as synchronization, radiochannels, and wireless communication, which are left out ofcompeting books, or lost in more lengthy formats.

Person
JOHN B. ANDERSON holds the Ericsson Chair in Digital Communication at Lund University, Sweden. His research work is in coding and communication algorithms, bandwidth-efficient coding, and the application of these to data transmission. He has served widely as a consultant in these fields. Dr. Anderson served on the Publications Board of IEEE from 1989-91 and 1994-96, and was editor in chief of the IEEE Press from 1994-96. He has served as associate editor of the IEEE Transactions on Information Theory (1980-84) and as guest editor of the IEEE Transactions on Communications. He presently serves as Series Editor for the IEEE Press Series on Digital and Mobile Communication. He is a Fellow of the IEEE (1987) and received the Humboldt Research Prize (Germany) in 1991. In 1996 he was elected Swedish National Visiting Chair in Information Technology. He received the IEEE Third Millenium Medal in 2000.
