Book Description

0306457253 978-0306457258 October 31, 1997 1
This is the first book to offer a clear and solid framework for understanding various techniques and applications to modem design. An accessible introduction to the state of the art in digital synchronization for data transmissions systems, the volume employs the basic concepts of parameter estimation theory to systematically derive synchronization algorithms that can be implemented in fully digital form and considers frequency-flat fading channels in depth. The authors present several chapters with new, cutting-edge data on frequency, phase and timing recovery in continuous-phase modulations. Graphs and charts aid comprehension, and exercises are inserted throughout the text.

5.0 out of 5 stars Valuable resource of synchronization in digital comm., December 30, 1997
This review is from: Synchronization Techniques for Digital Receivers (Applications of Communications Theory) (Hardcover)
This book summarizes authors' works on synchronization in digital comm over the past ten years. There are very few books specifically dedicated to this topic. According to my knowledge, several books on sync are now out of print, and the publication of this book can fill this blank. The most important feature of this book is that it provides valuable information on the sync techniques for continuous-phase modulation (CPM) which will play an improtant role of the next generation of PCS.

5.0 out of 5 stars Well organized, solid material, February 27, 2002
By A Customer
This review is from: Synchronization Techniques for Digital Receivers (Applications of Communications Theory) (Hardcover)
As mentioned in the preface the four areas that differentiate this book from others are (1)only *digital* synchronization is discussed, (2) Maximum Likelihood metric is used throughout, (3) for performance measure the Cramer Rao lower bound is used and (4) in addition to PAM, CPM is considered in detail too.
However, what I like most about this book is (1) its organization where you can directly jump to the chapter of interest with minimum overlap between chapters and (2) its coverage which is very fundamental, deductive and solid, staying away from ad hoc arguments.
