DESCRIPTION:
book on Information Theory and this one does a nice job of being more conversational I own another IEEE press book on Information Theory and this one does a nice job of being more conversational. It is a good initial read before moving on to that book.
. About the Author Irwin Lebow started his career at Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) Lincoln Laboratory, where he participated in the first stirrings of the digital revolution, contributing to pioneering efforts in digital computer design, error correction coding, and satellite communications. Dr. He later held senior-level positions i
With the advent of the PC, the Internet, modems, the compact disc and digital TV broadcasting, the analog world is being slowly replaced by the new digital world. Everyone knows about this trend, but few understand it. Even the communications engineer who is steeped in the mathematics of the field will find this book helpful in understanding the larger picture.. Much of what is happening with the technology is counterintuitive -- even to an engineer. UNDERSTANDING DIGITAL TRANSMISSION AND RECORDING explains the essence of digital communication and recording for working engineers, students and other professionals working across industries
The author details the two basic, problems in digital transmission and recording: first, how to design digital signals so that the information is transmitted or recorded accurately and efficiently; and second, how to encode essentially analog information such as speech and video into digital form. Digital transmission applications are now a major force in the communications industry. Readers will gain a practical understanding of: Digital modulation and coding schemes commonly used for power limited and bandwidth limited channelsMultiple-access techniques, such as s
