The Introduction To Analog And Digital Communications 2nd Edition With Wiley Plus Set

The second edition of this accessible book provides readers with an introductory treatment of communication theory as applied to the transmission of information-bearing signals. While it covers analog communications, the emphasis is placed on digital technology. It begins by presenting the functional blocks that constitute the transmitter and receiver of a communication system. Readers will next learn about electrical noise and then progress to multiplexing and multiple access techniques.

An introductory treatment of communication theory as applied to the transmission of information-bearing signals with attention given to both analog and digital communications. Chapter 1 reviews basic concepts. Chapters 2 through 4 pertain to the characterization of signals and systems. Chapters 5 through 7 are concerned with transmission of message signals over communication channels. Chapters 8 through 10 deal with noise in analog and digital communications. Each chapter (except chapter 1) begins with introductory remarks and ends with a problem set. Treatment is self-contained with numerous worked-out examples to support the theory.· Fourier Analysis · Filtering and Signal Distortion · Spectral Density and Correlation · Digital Coding of Analog Waveforms · Intersymbol Interference and Its Cures · Modulation Techniques · Probability Theory and Random Processes · Noise in Analog Modulation · Optimum Receivers for Data Communication

This book primarily focuses on the design of analog and digital communication systems; and has been structured to cater to the second year engineering undergraduate students of Computer Science, Information Technology, Electrical Engineering and Electronics and Communication departments. For better understanding, the basics of analog communication systems are outlined before the digital communication systems section. The content of this book is also suitable for the students with little knowledge in communication systems. The book is divided into five modules for efficient presentation, and it provides numerous examples and illustrations for the detailed understanding of the subject, in a thorough manner.
