Bullock, Scott R.

 
9781884932144: Transceiver and System Design for Digital Communications

Synopsis

This is the fourth edition of this successful professional reference book on transceiver design, the device that both sends and receives signals, and its place within the wireless communication system. It gives engineers and others a good intuitive understanding of wireless systems and spread spectrum. New topics covered include cognitive radio, systems, networks, and commercial communications. In addition, many items have been extensively updated to improve the flow of the book and enhance comprehension.

The new edition provides more of the latest technologies that are vital to wireless communications with the addition of cognition and commercial wireless systems.

The revision rounds out the areas in concept and development and most importantly, adds modern developments on the cognitive areas associated with adaptive technology that makes a system smart.

Synopsis

Now in a 3rd edition, this successful book provides an intuitive approach to transceiver design, allowing a broad spectrum of readers to understand the topics clearly. It covers a wide range of data link communication design techniques, including link budgets, dynamic range and system analysis of receivers and transmitters used in data link communications, digital modulation and demodulation techniques of phase-shift keyed and frequency hopped spread spectrum systems using phase diagrams, multipath, gain control, an intuitive approach to probability, jamming reduction method using various adaptive processes, global positioning systems (GPS) data link, and direction-finding and interferometers, plus a section on broadband communications and home networking. Various techniques and designs are evaluated for modulating and sending digital data. Thus readers gain a firm understanding of the processes needed to effectively design wireless data link communication systems.This book: provides an understanding of concepts in wireless, data link, and digital communication techniques for both commercial and military sectors; covers digital modulation, spread spectrum modulation and demodulation, link budgets, error detection and correction, probability applications, and a broad coverage of all the elements that make up a digital modulated data link; and, includes extra topics such as adaptive process to mitigate narrow band jammers in a broadband communications link, GPS, multipath, and satellite communications.

It also includes Link 16, JTRS, military radios, networking link budgets, Eb/No, BER, Pe, direct sequence spread spectrum transmitters, PN code generators, DSPs, AGC, pulsed matched filters, PPM, CDMA, carrier recovery, matched filters and sliding correlators, eye pattern, phase detection, Gaussian processes, quantization error, antijam, adaptive filters, intercept receivers, GPS.
