This volume presents the logical arithmetical or computational procedures within communications systems that will ensure the solution to various problems. The authors comprehensively introduce the theoretical elements that are at the basis of the field of algorithms for communications systems. Various applications of these algorithms are then illustrated with particular attention to wired and wireless network access technologies.
* Provides a complete treatment of algorithms for communications systems, rarely presented together
* Introduces the theoretical background to digital communications and signal processing
* Features numerous applications including advanced wireless modems and echo cancellation techniques
* Includes useful reference lists at the end of each chapter
Graduate students in the fields of Telecommunications and Electrical Engineering Researchers and Professionals in the area of Digital Communications, Signal Processing and Computer Engineering will find this book invaluable.
