About the Book: Introduction to Analog & Digital Communications
An introductory treatment of communication theory as applied to the transmission of information-bearing signals with attention given to both analog and digital communications.
The second edition of this accessible book provides readers with an introductory treatment of communication theory as applied to the transmission of information-bearing signals. While it covers analog communications, the emphasis is placed on digital technology. It begins by presenting the functional blocks that constitute the transmitter and receiver of a communication system. Readers will next learn about electrical noise and then progress to multiplexing and multiple access techniques.
