Bøger i Applications of Communications Theory serien

This book is an outgrowth of a course given by the author for people in industry, government, and universities wishing to understand the implica tions of emerging optical fiber technology, and how this technology can be applied to their specific information transport and sensing system needs.

Focuses on the fundamentals of operation, architectures, performance management, and protocols of integrated broadband networks capable of supporting voice, data, image, and video telecommunication transport and services. This book offers an introduction to the field for systems designers, hardware and software engineers, and R&D managers.

The last ten years have seen a great flowering of the theory of digital data modulation. Now the older disciplines of detection theory and coding theory have been generalized and applied to the point where it is hard to tell where these end and the theories of signal design and modulation begin.

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.

Synchronization is a critical function in digital communications; It is widely recognized that a fundamental understanding of digital synchronization can only be reached by providing the designer with a solid theoretical framework, or else he will not know where to adjust his methods when he attempts to apply them to new situations.

Basic Concepts in Information Theory and Coding is an outgrowth of a one semester introductory course that has been taught at the University of Southern California since the mid-1960s.
