Description
The last ten years have seen a great flowering of the theory of digital data modulation. This book is a treatise on digital modulation theory, with an emphasis on these more recent innovations. It has its origins in a collabor ation among the authors that began in 1977. At that time it seemed odd to us that the subjects of error-correcting codes and data modulation were so separated; it seemed also that not enough understanding underlay the mostly ad hoc approaches to data transmission. A show more great many others were intrigued, too, and the result was a large body of new work that makes up most of this book. 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. Despite our emphasis on the events of the last ten years, we have included all the traditional topics of digital phase modulation. Signal space concepts are developed, as are simple phase-shift-keyed and pulse-shaped modulations; receiver structures are discussed, from the simple linear receiver to the Viterbi algorithm; the effects of channel filtering and of hardlimiting are described. The volume thus serves well as a pedagogical book for research engineers in industry and second-year graduate students in communications engineering. The production of a manageable book required that many topics be left out. show lessTags

John B. Anderson is the Ericsson Chair in Digital Communication at Lund University in Sweden. He received his Ph.D. in electrical engineering from Cornell University in 1972. His research work is in coding and communication algorithms, bandwidth-efficient coding, and data compression. Dr. Anderson served as President and Vice President of the IEEE show more Information Theory Society, and in 1983 and 2006 was Co-Chair of the IEEE International Symposium on Information Theory. He served on the Publications Board of IEEE on three occasions, and was Editor-in-Chief of IEEE Press during 1994-96 and 2012-13. He won the Humboldt Research Prize in 1991. Dr. Anderson is the author of two other Wiley-IEEE Press titles: Understanding Information Transmission (2005) and Digital Transmission Engineering, Second Edition (2005). show less
