Digital Signal Processing In Communications Systems

An engineer's introduction to concepts, algorithms, and advancements in Digital Signal Processing. This lucidly written resource makes extensive use of real-world examples as it covers all the important design and engineering references.

The second edition of Digital Signal Processing in Modern Communication Systems (www.signal-processing.net) takes you on a journey that starts with basic DSP principles and ends with a treatment of modern wireless modems such as single-tone and OFDM transceivers which are found in GSM, WLAN, LTE and 5G technologies. Throughout this journey, we will cover signal processing topics that are applicable not just to the field of communications but to many engineering disciplines. This text steps outside the often dry mathematical presentation of more traditional DSP books and provides a more intuitive approach to this fascinating topic. Some of this book's uniqueness can be summarized as follows: - An intuitive approach to the topic of digital signal processing. - Working in-book MatLab examples supporting all important concepts. - A large scope covering basic concepts (correlation, convolution, DFT, FIR filters ...) as well as advanced topics (optimization, adaptive signal processing, equalization, OFDM, MIMO ... ). - MatLab modeling of analog/RF effects (multipath channel, thermal noise, phase noise, IQ imbalances, DC and frequency offsets) that must be addressed and solved in modern modem design. - Real world topics that go beyond the ordinary communication textbooks such as signal synchronization, modem rate management, and fixed-point effects. All in all, this book is a must-have for students and practicing engineers who want to build upon the principles of Digital Signal Processing, enrich their understanding with advanced topics, and then apply that knowledge to the design of modern wireless modems.

With a novel, less classical approach to the subject, the authors have written a book with the conviction that signal processing should be taught to be fun. The treatment is therefore less focused on the mathematics and more on the conceptual aspects, the idea being to allow the readers to think about the subject at a higher conceptual level, thus building the foundations for more advanced topics. The book remains an engineering text, with the goal of helping students solve real-world problems. In this vein, the last chapter pulls together the individual topics as discussed throughout the book into an in-depth look at the development of an end-to-end communication system, namely, a modem for communicating digital information over an analog channel.

Digital Signal Processing for Communication Systems examines the plans for the future and the progress that has already been made, in the field of DSP and its applications to communication systems. The book pursues the progression from communication and information theory through to the implementation, evaluation and performance enhancing of practical communication systems using DSP technology. Digital Signal Processing for Communication Systems looks at various types of coding and modulation techniques, describing different applications of Turbo-Codes, BCH codes and general block codes, pulse modulations, and combined modulation and coding in order to improve the overall system performance. The book examines DSP applications in measurements performed for channel characterisation, pursues the use of DSP for design of effective channel simulators, and discusses equalization and detection of various signal formats for different channels. A number of system design issues are presented where digital signal processing is involved, reporting on the successful implementation of the system components using DSP technology, and including the problems involved with implementation of some DSP algorithms. Digital Signal Processing for Communication Systems serves as an excellent resource for professionals and researchers who deal with digital signal processing for communication systems, and may serve as a text for advanced courses on the subject.

Underwater acoustic digital signal processing and communications is an area of applied research that has witnessed major advances over the past decade. Rapid developments in this area were made possible by the use of powerful digital signal processors (DSPs) whose speed, computational power and portability allowed efficient implementation of complex signal processing algorithms and experimental demonstration of their performance in a variety of underwater environments. The early results served as a motivation for the development of new and improved signal processing methods for underwater applications, which today range from classical of autonomous underwater vehicles and sonar signal processing, to remote control underwater wireless communications. This book presents the diverse areas of underwater acoustic signal processing and communication systems through a collection of contributions from prominent researchers in these areas. Their results, both new and those published over the past few years, have been assembled to provide what we hope is a comprehensive overview of the recent developments in the field. The book is intended for a general audience of researchers, engineers and students working in the areas of underwater acoustic signal processing. It requires the reader to have a basic understanding of the digital signal processing concepts. Each topic is treated from a theoretical perspective, followed by practical implementation details. We hope that the book can serve both as a study text and an academic reference.
