Description for Principles of Digital Communication: A Top-Down Approach
hardcover. A comprehensive text that takes a unique top-down approach to teaching the fundamentals of digital communication for a one-semester course. Num Pages: 338 pages, 124 b/w illus. 1 table 128 exercises. BIC Classification: TJFD; TJK. Category: (P) Professional & Vocational; (U) Tertiary Education (US: College). Dimension: 247 x 174. .
This comprehensive and accessible text teaches the fundamentals of digital communication via a top-down-reversed approach, specifically formulated for a one-semester course. The unique approach focuses on the transmission problem and develops knowledge of receivers before transmitters. In doing so it cuts straight to the heart of the digital communication problem, enabling students to learn quickly, intuitively, and with minimal background knowledge. Beginning with the decision problem faced by a decoder and going on to cover receiver designs for different channels, hardware constraints, design trade-offs, convolutional coding, Viterbi decoding, and passband communication, detail is given on system-level design as well as ...

Reviews for Principles of Digital Communication: A Top-Down Approach
'This is an excellent introductory book on digital communications theory that is suitable for advanced undergraduate students and/or first-year graduate students, or alternatively for self-study. It achieves a nice degree of rigor in a clear, gentle, and student-friendly manner. The exercises alone are worth the price of the book.' Dave Forney, Massachusetts Institute of Technology '[This] is a special and ... Read more
