This applied engineering reference covers a wide range of wireless
communication design techniques; including link budgets, error detection
and correction, adaptive and cognitive techniques, and system analysis
of receivers and transmitters. Digital modulation and demodulation
techniques using phase-shift keyed and frequency hopped spread spectrum
systems are addressed. The book includes sections on broadband
communications and home networking, satellite communications, global
positioning systems (GPS), search, acquisition and track, and radar
communications. Various techniques and designs are evaluated for
modulating and sending digital signals, and the book offers an intuitive
approach to probability plus jammer reduction methods using various
adaptive processes. This title assists readers in gaining a firm
understanding of the processes needed to effectively design wireless
digital communication and cognitive systems with a basic understanding
of radar.
Transceiver and System Design for Digital Communications has been
fully revised and updated in this new fifth edition, with the addition
of two new chapters addressing radar communications and volume search
and track.
Derived from numerous training workshops taught to engineers through
private courses by the authors, this book will appeal to digital
wireless communications system designers in both the commercial and
military sectors, in particular new engineers requiring practical design
techniques and fundamental understanding of modern systems that employ
digital transceivers.
