The Best-Selling Introduction to Digital Communications: Thoroughly Revised and Updated for OFDM, MIMO, LTE, and More

With remarkable clarity, Drs. Bernard Sklar and fred harris introduce every digital communication technology at the heart of today's wireless and Internet revolutions, with completely new chapters on synchronization, OFDM, and MIMO.

Building on the field's classic, best-selling introduction, the authors provide a unified structure and context for helping students and professional engineers understand each technology, without sacrificing mathematical precision. They illuminate the big picture and details of modulation, coding, and signal processing, tracing signals and processing steps from information source through sink. Throughout, readers will find numeric examples, step-by-step implementation guidance, and diagrams that place key concepts in clear context.

• Understand signals, spectra, modulation, demodulation, detection, communication links, system link budgets, synchronization, fading, and other key concepts
• Apply channel coding techniques, including advanced turbo coding and LDPC
• Explore multiplexing, multiple access, and spread spectrum concepts and techniques
• Learn about source coding: amplitude quantizing, differential PCM, and adaptive prediction
• Discover the essentials and applications of synchronization, OFDM, and MIMO technology

More than ever, this is an ideal resource for practicing electrical engineers and students who want a practical, accessible introduction to modern digital communications.
This Third Edition includes online access to additional examples and material on the book's website.

Über diesen Titel

Über die Autorin bzw. den Autor

Dr. Bernard Sklar has over 40 years of experience in technical design and management positions at Republic Aviation, Hughes Aircraft, Litton Industries, and The Aerospace Corporation, where he helped develop the MILSTAR satellite system. He is now head of advanced systems at Communications Engineering Services, a consulting company he founded in 1984. He has taught engineering courses at several universities, including UCLA and USC, and has trained professional engineers worldwide.

Dr. Fredric J. Harris is a professor of electrical engineering and the CUBIC signal processing chair at San Diego State University and an internationally renowned expert on DSP and communication systems. He is also the co-inventor of the BlackmanHarris filter. He has extensively published many technical papers, the most famous being the seminal 1978 paper On the Use of Windows for Harmonic Analysis with the Discrete Fourier Transform. He is also the author of the textbook Multi-Rate Signal Processing for Communication Systems and the source coding chapter in the previous edition of this book.
