Digital Communications

New to This Edition

Coverage of current topics including: Turbocodes, Turboequalization, Antenna Arrays, Digital Cellular Systems, and Iterative Detection.

Features

• Complete and thorough introduction to the analysis and design of digital communication systems.
  
• Progressive organization. The book is organized so that each chapter builds on material previously presented. The book begins with an introduction to the history and classification of channel models and builds from there.
