Bøger i Information Technology: Transmission, Processing and Storage serien

This book is an evolution from my book A First Course in Information Theory published in 2002 when network coding was still at its infancy. The last few years have witnessed the rapid development of network coding into a research ?eld of its own in information science. With its root in infor- tion theory, network coding has not only brought about a paradigm shift in network communications at large, but also had signi?cant in?uence on such speci?c research ?elds as coding theory, networking, switching, wireless c- munications,distributeddatastorage,cryptography,andoptimizationtheory. While new applications of network coding keep emerging, the fundamental - sults that lay the foundation of the subject are more or less mature. One of the main goals of this book therefore is to present these results in a unifying and coherent manner. While the previous book focused only on information theory for discrete random variables, the current book contains two new chapters on information theory for continuous random variables, namely the chapter on di?erential entropy and the chapter on continuous-valued channels. With these topics included, the book becomes more comprehensive and is more suitable to be used as a textbook for a course in an electrical engineering department.

Coding for Wireless Channels is an accessible introduction to the theoretical foundations of modern coding theory, with applications to wireless transmission systems. State-of-the-art coding theory is explained using soft (maximum-likelihood) decoding rather than algebraic decoding. Convolutional codes, trellis-coded modulation, turbo codes, and low-density parity-check (LDPC) codes are also covered, with specific reference to the graphical structures through which they can be described and decoded (trellises and factor graphs). A special section is devoted to multiple-antenna systems and space-time codes. The author assumes that the reader has a firm grasp of the concepts usually presented in senior-level courses on digital communications, information theory, and random processes.Coding for Wireless Channels will serve as an advanced text for undergraduate and graduate level courses and as a reference for professionals in telecommunications.

Designed for senior electrical engineering students, this textbook explores the theoretical concepts of digital signal processing and communication systems by presenting laboratory experiments using real-time DSP hardware. Each experiment begins with a presentation of the required theory and concludes with instructions for performing them. Engineering students gain experience in working with equipment commonly used in industry. This text features DSP-based algorithms for transmitter and receiver functions.

Cross-layer design seeks to enhance the capacity of wireless networks significantly through the joint optimization of multiple layers in the network, primarily the physical (PHY) and medium access control (MAC) layers.

Here is a thorough, not-too-complex introduction to the technical foundations for multimedia applications across the Internet: communications (principles, technologies and networking); compressive encoding of digital media; and Internet protocol and services. The book is well-suited to non-specialists with some technical background.

The book addresses the role of repeaters in the CDMA network, their interaction with the network and the needed integrative design and optimization of the repeater-embedded network. The approach of the book is to develop functional comprehension of the complex radio network, and affinity to the factors dominating the Radio Resource Utilization.

This excellent Senior undergraduate/graduate textbook offers an unprecedented measurement of science perspective on DSP theory and applications, a wealth of definitions and real-life examples making it invaluable for students, while practical.

This is the first graduate-level text on Immersive Audio Signal Processing. It introduces Digital Signal Processing and Psychoacoustics, and a wealth of state-of-the-art applications in Audio Signal Processing. Enriched with real-life examples and up-to-date set of references, it is useful for Electrical Engineering instructors and students.

Since the first edition of this book was published seven years ago, the field of modeling and simulation of communication systems has grown and matured in many ways, and the use of simulation as a day-to-day tool is now even more common practice.

Principles of Digital Transmission is designed for advanced undergraduate and graduate level students and professions in telecommunications. Teachers and learners can mix and match chapters to create four distinct courses: (1) a one-term basic course in digital communications; (2) a one-term course in advanced digital communications;

Stochastic Image Processing provides the first thorough treatment of Markov and hidden Markov random fields and their application to image processing.

Interference Avoidance Methods for Wireless Systems is an introduction to wireless techniques useful for uncoordinated unlicensed band systems, which use adaptive transmitters and receivers.

Coded Modulation Systems is an introduction to the subject of coded modulation in digital communication. In coded modulation, continuous time signals and their phases and amplitudes play the major role. Continuous-phase modulation (CPM) codes encode the signal phase, and create constant envelope RF signals.

This book is an expanded third edition of the book Performance Analysis of Digital Transmission Systems, originally published in 1990. Two basic problems arise in mathematical modeling: the problem of identifying a system and the problem of applying a model to the system analysis.

Our understanding of nature is often through nonuniform observations in space or time. It is also a useful reference for scientists and engineers working in the areas of medical imaging, geophysics, astronomy, biomedical engineering, computer graphics, digital filter design, speech and video processing, and phased array radar.

The Work, originally published as Volume 30, Numbers 1-3 of the Journal of VLSI Signal Processing Systems for Signal, Image, and Video Technology, will be valuable to anyone working or researching in the field of wireless communication systems.

This study focuses on recent research into the interaction between digital signal processing (DSP) and telecommunications. Particular emphasis is given to advanced techniques and system architectures in the fields of signal encoding and transmission for multimedia and personal communications.
