Introductory Digital Wireless Communications (Hardcover). This item is unavailable.Introductory Digital Wireless Communications (Hardcover)

Introductory Digital Wireless Communications presents the fundamentals of modern digital communication systems and evaluates their performance using realistic channel models. The reader will gain a basic understanding of the physical layer of digital communication systems and be exposed to wireless channel modeling and cellular land mobile radio systems. The textbook provides all the necessary background material in probability, random processes, and signals and systems for the reader to be successfully introduced to the core principles in physical layer communications. It takes a mathematical modeling approach and provides detailed step-by-step derivations of key results, along with examples, to guide the reader in the subject matter. Problems are provided at the end of each chapter. The textbook is appropriate for a senior-level quarter or semester course in either digital communications or wireless communications. 

Dr. Gordon L. Stüber received his Ph.D. in Electrical Engineering from the University of Waterloo, Ontario, Canada. In 1986, he joined the School of Electrical and Computer Engineering, Georgia Institute of Technology, where he is Professor Emeritus and Joseph M. Pettit Chair Professor. He was awarded IEEE Fellow in 1999 “for contributions to mobile radio and spread spectrum communications.” In 2003, he received the IEEE Vehicular Technology Society James R. Evans Avant Garde Award “for contributions to theoretical research in wireless communications.” In 2007, he received the IEEE Communications Society Wireless Communications Technical Committee Recognition Award (2007) “for outstanding technical contributions in the field and for service to the scientific and engineering communities.” He was an IEEE Communication Society Distinguished Lecturer (2007-2008) and IEEE Vehicular Technology Society Distinguished Lecturer (2011-2014). He is a past Editor for Spread Spectrum with the IEEE Transactions on Communications (1993-1998) and served as an elected Member-at-Large on the IEEE Communications Society Board of Governors (2007-2009) and is currently an elected member of the IEEE Vehicular Technology Society Board of Governors (2001-2003, 2004-2006, 2007-2009, 2010-2012, 2013-2015, 2016-2018, 2019-2021, 2022-2023, 2025-2027). He received the IEEE Vehicular Technology Society Outstanding Service Award in 2005.
