This text will provide a useful reference to modulation and coding as well as a review of current practice. Accessibly written, this will be a suitable textbook for students on advanced communications engineering courses as well as an important contribution for those involved in the wireless communications industry." "The text uses visual, graphical approaches wherever possible in order to help the reader understand abstract concepts in a familiar setting. Equally helpful to the student is the inclusion of examples from real radio systems, which help to apply and demonstrate theoretical principles. This modern text includes all the latest techniques, such as OFDM and turbo-codes, as well as looking forward to future developments."--BOOK JACKET ER -
