Editorial Reviews

Review

From reviews of the first edition:
`An excellent and long overdue addition to the literature ... Identifies the important concepts and techniques necessary for an introductory understanding of the field ... [This book is] highly recommended for anyone developing a simulation of a communication system, using simulation program for the design or analysis of a communication system, or considering the application of these tools to their own design and analysis problems.'
William H. Tranter, IEEE Communications Magazine --This text refers to an alternate Hardcover edition.

4.0 out of 5 stars a must-have for communication system simulation, February 23, 2001
By 
The second edition is a much-improved version compared to the first one. More details are added -- which makes it easy to follow. Anyone who is doing system simulation or performance analysis should have one around. I would have rated it a 5-star if the authors should have included some of the algorithms in a CD to save reader's time.

4.0 out of 5 stars A must for anyone who simulates communication systems!, July 29, 1998
By A Customer
This review is from: Simulation of Communication Systems (Applications of Communications Theory) (Hardcover)
A great reference for those involved with signal-level simulations of communication systems. Provides superb coverage of both the fundamentals and advanced concepts associated with this "artform."
