DESCRIPTION:
Imperfect, but quite useful An informative and highly useful book. I found this book to be readable overall and it contained cutting-edge info (when I first read the book in 1996) about wireless communications, spread spectrum, etc. There seems to be some variation in the level of lucidity, clarity, readability and the level of depth vs. breadth in explaining the material between the various chapters, indicating that perhaps the author is more knowledgeable on some topics compared to others. Regretfully I agree with some of the previous Amazon reviewers that the author places too muc. "Bad, very very bad" according to A Customer. This book is terrible. Don't waste you money. Never having seen such a poorly written, self promoting text, I took it upon myself to look further into the matter.Basically, the book is a pitch for the authors so called patented FQPSK. Upon further investigation, I discovered that an entity called "digcom" licenses fqpsk. The web site, , list a cartel of sorts that leads one to believe that many major companies are embracing fqpsk as a standard. I contacted a couple of the companies listed and talked to the VP's of engineering. They all had nothing good to . "poorly written, has a lot of mistakes and typos" according to A Customer. Looks like the initial intent was to cover a lot of topics, but the quality of presentation is quite poor. I is a pain to read this book due to a numerous typos, mistakes in solutions (the first example, poorly written, has a lot of mistakes and typos Looks like the initial intent was to cover a lot of topics, but the quality of presentation is quite poor. I is a pain to read this book due to a numerous typos, mistakes in solutions (the first example, 3.2.1.b gives wrong solution, any weather radar technitial understands that the Doppler frequency must be doubled). Author seems to be a good administrator but not a good writer. Also several wrong reference citings has been found. Self boasting, however, is felt from the very beginning.. .2.1.b gives wrong solution, any weather radar technitial understands that the Doppler frequency must be doubled).
