Synopsis

Covers both traditional aspects of communications and recent developments including integrated circuits, microprocessors and software, and digital techniques and signals. Reflects the continuing evolution of the field.

From the Back Cover

Since the third edition of Electronic Communication Systems: A Complete Course was published, the worldwide growth in all aspects of communications has been astonishing and exponential. Email links people scattered all over the globe, and the Internet provide enormous information and entertainment resources to anyone who has basic access. Cellular phones are ubiquitous, outnumbering conventional wired phones in some countries, and provide convenient voice and data access from almost anywhere.

This updated and comprehensive edition continues to balance traditional topics with the latest advancements in the field, and builds on information given in previous editions by adding or expanding on numerous topics. These include:

• Fiber optics, optical amplifiers, and wavelength-division multiplexing
• New busses and interconnection standards such as CAN bus
• Internet Protocol and Voice over Internet Protocol
• Channel simulators and wireless noise characteristics
• Short-range Bluetooth wireless standard
• Smart antennas for cellular systems
• Cell phone architectures that are primarily digital
• Updated electromagnetic spectrum assignments

Also new to this edition is a CD of SystemView by Elanix, a powerful, system-level modeling and simulation tool for understanding communication-system performance and architectures.
