Data Communications And Transmission Principles

This unique text, for both the first year graduate student and the newcomer to the field, provides in-depth coverage of the basic principles of data communications and covers material which is not treated in other texts, including phase and timing recovery and echo cancellation. Throughout the book, exercises and applications illustrate the material while up-to-date references round out the work.

Data Communication Principles for Fixed and Wireless Networks focuses on the physical and data link layers. Included are examples that apply to a diversified range of higher level protocols such as TCP/IP, OSI and packet based wireless networks. Performance modeling is introduced for beginners requiring basic mathematics. Separate discussion has been included on wireless cellular networks performance and on the simulation of networks. Throughout the book, wireless LANS has been given the same level of treatment as fixed network protocols. It is assumed that readers would be familiar with basic mathematics and have some knowledge of binary number systems. Data Communication Principles for Fixed and Wireless Networks is for students at the senior undergraduate and first year graduate levels. It can also be used as a reference work for professionals working in the areas of data networks, computer networks and internet protocols.

The author describes the basics of data communications with transmission principles, an approach not found in other guides and manuals. The book offers comprehensive coverage of the topic without sacrificing detail.

Zum Thema Datenkommunikation gibt es eine Vielzahl von Büchern. Die meisten sind jedoch als Lehrbücher wenig geeignet. Nachschlagewerke mit einem Umfang von 500-700 Seiten sind zu detailliert und umfangreich, und Einführungswerke erörtern das Thema nicht tiefgreifend genug. Diese Lücke haben die Autoren, die selbst als Dozenten in diesem Bereich tätig sind, mit ihrem Buch "Data Communication and Networks" jetzt geschlossen. Dieser Band diskutiert das Thema Datenkommunikation und Netzwerke speziell für fortgeschrittene Studenten, und zwar angepasst an deren Wissensstand. Die Autoren vermitteln den Stoff anschaulich, übersichtlich und so detailliert wie nötig. Auf ein Übermaß an tiefgehenden Detailinformationen wird bewusst verzichtet, um den Leser nicht unnötig zu belasten. Mit umfangreichen Illustrationen und einem praktischen Frage-Antwort-Teil. Die besprochenen Demoprogramme können von der begleitenden Website heruntergeladen werden.

Technical Aspects of Data Communication, Third Edition provides information pertinent to the technical aspects of data communication. This book discusses a simple asynchronous interface implemented with a specialized integrated circuit called a UART. Organized into 28 chapters, this edition begins with an overview of the interface standards ranging from the classic EIA-232-D to the EIA-530. This text then describes modems and modem control, with material on high-speed modems and error-correcting modems. Other chapters discuss hardware and software methods. This book discusses as well digital transmission systems and the Integrated Service Digital Network (ISDN). The final chapter deals with local area networks (LANs) and shows how data communication is the key to information and resources sharing in modern networks of personal computers and work stations. This book is intended to be suitable for readers who are about to design a data communication system, are about to purchase a program data communication hardware, or are just interested in learning more about data communication.

This updated second edition provides working answers to today's critical questions about designing and managing all types of data transmission systems and features a new chapter on local area networks (LANs). It presents comprehensive, ready-to-use information -from basic principles to advanced design techniques-on data transmission characteristics, systems, and applications, including: voice-grade, wideband, digital, radio, cable, satellite, and fiber-optic systems.
