Hallmark Features
  • Unique use and presentation of simulation programs. Through the use of simulation programs in Matlab and in C, students are able to:
    • Determine the power spectral density of complex data encoding rules (Chapter 3).
    • Simulate the performance of passband data transmission techniques (Chapter 4).
    • Design and assess the performance of carrier recovery systems (Chapter 6).
    • Develop time domain models for a variety of channels (Chapter 7).
    • Design and assess the performance of adaptive equalizers (Chapters 10 and 11).
    • Use existing programs as the framework for creating their own simulation modules.
  • Offers a unified presentation.
    • Develops a common Markov Process model for data encoding, ISI, and partial response, enabling an approach to the Viterbi Algorithm that is common to all these phenomena.
    • Completely discusses all of the equalizer structures used in modem design and gives comparative performance on real channels.
    • Develops a unified approach to communications channel modeling so comparisons of receiver structures appropriate to different channels can be made.
