Features of Principles of Digital Communication and Coding

• Written by two distinguished experts in the field of digital communications, this classic text remains a vital resource three decades after its initial publication.
• Its treatment is geared toward advanced students of communications theory and to designers of channels, links, terminals, modems, or networks used to transmit and receive digital messages.
• The three-part approach begins with the fundamentals of digital communication and block coding, including an analysis of block code ensemble performance.
• The second part introduces convolutional coding, exploring ensemble performance and sequential decoding.
• The final section addresses source coding and rate distortion theory, examining fundamental concepts for memoryless sources as well as precepts related to memory, Gaussian sources, and universal coding.
• Appendixes of useful information appear throughout the text, and each chapter concludes with a set of problems.
