This is the fourth edition of this successful professional reference book on transceiver design, the device that both sends and receives signals, and its place within the wireless communication system. It gives engineers and others a good intuitive understanding of wireless systems and spread spectrum. New topics covered include cognitive radio, systems, networks, and commercial communications. In addition, many items have been extensively updated to improve the flow of the book and enhance comprehension.
The new edition provides more of the latest technologies that are vital to wireless communications with the addition of cognition and commercial wireless systems.
The revision rounds out the areas in concept and development and most importantly, adds modern developments on the cognitive areas associated with adaptive technology that makes a system smart.

This book was written for those who want a good understanding of how to design a spread spectrum transceiver as well as a good intuitive and practical approach. This text will provide a valuable resource for anyone involved in transceiver design for digital communications, but includes also a basic understanding of spread spectrum in general and many of the aspects of the actual design. Although this text is geared more towards basic direct sequence analysis, many of the principles can be applied to other forms of spread spectrum or digital communications.
Scott R. Bullock received his BSEE degree from Brigham Young University in 1979 and his MSEE degree from University of Utah in 1988. He has worked, consulted, and held positions at TI, Omnipoint, E-Systems, Fellow at Raytheon Missile Systems, Senior Director at MKS/ENI, Director at Titan, VP at Phonex Broadband, and VP at L3 communications Satellite Networks. Mr. Bullock specializes in data link design and system analysis. He currently holds 18 patents in the areas of spread spectrum wireless data links, frequency hop detectors, and adaptive filters. He has published several articles in spread spectrum, data links, direction finding, multipath, adaptive filters, AGCs/PLLs, and presented a paper on a D8PSK data link at the AIAA/IEEE 14th DASC conference. His analysis and designs include; Spread Spectrum Microscan Receiver, Spread Spectrum Environment Simulator, anti-jam LPI data links for both military and commercial products, high frequency Adaptive Filter, Frequency Hop detector, handheld PCS spread spectrum wireless telephone and data products, GPS data link for SCAT-I aircraft landings where he was an active participant and made a presentation at the RTCA meetings in Washington DC for establishing the data link standard. Developed commercial products including wireless telephone jacks, modems, broadband communications and networking for home use, and digital satellite systems. Mr. Bullock is presently involved with the development of wireless anti-jam, low probability of intercept, data links for missile systems and unmanned airborne vehicles.
