Hallmark Features
|
- The most modern and up-to-date treatment of Communication Systems. Simon Haykin has revised the only undergraduate text book on the market that emphasizes the statistical underpinnings of communication theory in a complete and detailed manner.
- Great emphasis on Digital Communications. Without neglecting coverage of analog communications, the author has included coverage of emerging technologies, for example digital subscriber lines (DSL), carrierless amplitude modulation/phase modulation (CAP), and discrete multi-tone (DMT). It should be noted that this is the first time such extensive coverage is being made available at the undergraduate level.
- Organization of text and easy-to-read writing style. As reviewers have mentioned, one of the strengths of this text is the author's easy-to-read writing style and its superb organization. Students will benefit from the text's abundance of examples illustrating different aspects of theory and its broad coverage of communication systems.
- MATLAB Computer Exercises. The text offers the use of MATLAB in a software laboratory for demonstrating important aspects of communication theory.
- What reviewers are saying...
- "This is an extremely well-written book."
- "The flow is good...and the level of presentation is appropriate."
- "The most logical and compelling method of presentation of the fundamental issues."
- "The exercises are very well done."
