Modern Quadrature Amplitude Modulation: Principles and Applications for Fixed and Wireless Channels (Hardback)

Condition

GOOD: The book is in very good condition, with only a few signs of use and wear, and was rated good because a previous owner's name is written on the front end page. However, the remaining pages are free of writing.

Product Details

From the back cover: "The book is structured in four parts. Part I is an introduction for readers requiring a background in the field of modulation and communication channels.

"Part II concentrates mainly on classic QAM transmission issues relevant to Gaussian channels, including clock and carrier recovery, equalization, trellis coded modulation, standardized CCITT V-series modem features, etc.

"Part III and IV are concerned with QAM for mobile radio channels, including more complex coherent reference-aided transparent tone in band, pilot symbol assisted and trellis coded modulation schemes. These are contrasted with various differentially coded low-complexity non-coherent arrangements. Then the reader is guided through an adaptive modem optimizing its phasor constellation for various conditions, before high-rate wide-band transmissions and a novel channel equalizer are considered.

"Part IV incorporates QAM-related orthogonal techniques and considers the spectral efficiency of QAM in cellular frequency re-use structures, before concluding with a QAM-based speech communications system design study, including various speech codecs, error correction codecs, a voice activity detector and packet reservation multiple access, providing performance figures in contrast to one and two bits per symbol bench-mark schemes."
