Investigation Of Digital Data Communication Systems

One of the first books in this area, this text focuses on important aspects of the system operation, analysis and performance evaluation of selected chaos-based digital communications systems – a hot topic in communications and signal processing.

Results are presented of investigations on a variety of topics related to the transmission of digital data. Included is an analysis of the degradation of the performance of noncoherent binary FSK and carrier keyed systems due to a frequency offset of the received signal. The optimization of systems operating over dispersive channels in the presence of nonwhite, gaussian noise is treated and the effects of medium phase perturbations on the performance of digital systems are analyzed. Partial orderings of digital channels specified by their transition probabilities are also investigated. (Author).

Digital Communications is the result of the author’s 38 years’ experience in teaching, and in design and development of various wireless communication systems. It covers all primary areas in digital communication systems in engineering. The book intends to give the students a grasp of the basic issues of communication systems during transition from analog to digital. To make the reading interesting as well as systematic, conscious efforts have been made to explain the basics of technology, avoiding complex mathematics as far as possible. Numerical problems are then introduced to help the students fully understand the concepts and applications. KEY FEATURES • Complete and thorough introduction to the analysis and design of digital communication systems • Concepts explained with practical applications derived from the personal experience of the author • Analytical steps of all derivation without any external reference • Numerous numerical examples to help students understand the fundamental applications of the concepts in practice

Introduction to Digital Communications explores the basic principles in the analysis and design of digital communication systems, including design objectives, constraints and trade-offs. After portraying the big picture and laying the background material, this book lucidly progresses to a comprehensive and detailed discussion of all critical elements and key functions in digital communications. The first undergraduate-level textbook exclusively on digital communications, with a complete coverage of source and channel coding, modulation, and synchronization. Discusses major aspects of communication networks and multiuser communications Provides insightful descriptions and intuitive explanations of all complex concepts Focuses on practical applications and illustrative examples. A companion Web site includes solutions to end-of-chapter problems and computer exercises, lecture slides, and figures and tables from the text

This practical guide helps readers to learn how to develop and implement synchronization functions in digital communication systems.

Combining theoretical knowledge and practical applications, this advanced-level textbook covers the most important aspects of contemporary digital communication systems. Introduction to Digital Communication Systems focuses on the rules of functioning digital communication system blocks, starting with the performance limits set by the information theory. Drawing on information relating to turbo codes and LDPC codes, the text presents the basic methods of error correction and detection, followed by baseband transmission methods, and single- and multi-carrier digital modulations. The basic properties of several physical communication channels used in digital communication systems are explained, showing the transmission and reception methods on channels suffering from intersymbol interference. The text also describes the most recent developments in the transmission techniques specific to wireless communications used both in wireline and wireless systems. The case studies are a unique feature of this book, illustrating elements of the theory developed in each chapter. Introduction to Digital Communication Systems provides a concise approach to digital communications, with practical examples and problems to supplement the text. There is also a companion website featuring an instructors’ solutions manual and presentation slides to aid understanding. Offers theoretical and practical knowledge in a self-contained textbook on digital communications Explains basic rules of recent achievements in digital communication systems such as MIMO, turbo codes, LDPC codes, OFDMA, SC-FDMA Provides problems at the end of each chapter with an instructors’ solutions manual on the companion website Includes case studies and representative communication system examples such as DVB-S, GSM, UMTS, 3GPP-LTE
