This best-selling, easy to read, communication systems book has been extensively revised to include an exhaustive treatment of digital communications. Throughout, it emphasises the statistical underpinnings of communication theory in a complete and detailed manner. Without neglecting coverage of analog communications, the author presents the latest emerging technologies, such as digital subscriber lines (DSL), carrierless amplitude modulation/phase modulation (CAP), and discrete multi-tone (DMT).
  • The author's easy-to-read writing style and superb organization makes the materials easy to understand.
  • The book offers the use of MATLAB in a software laboratory for demonstrating important aspects of communication theory.
