Do you need to know what signal type to select for a wireless application? Quickly develop a useful expertise in digital modulation with this practical guide, based on the author's experience of over thirty years in industrial design. You will understand the physical meaning behind the mathematics of wireless signals and learn the intricacies and tradeoffs in signal selection and design. Six modulation families and twelve modulation types are covered in depth, together with a quantitative ranking of relative cost incurred to implement any of twelve modulation types. Extensive discussions of the Shannon Limit, Nyquist filtering, efficiency measures and signal-to-noise measures are provided, radio wave propagation and antennas, multiple access techniques, and signal coding principles are all covered, and spread spectrum and wireless system operation requirements are presented.
This is a nice book. Dr. McCune does a very nice job of presenting digital wireless communications in a practical and easy-to-understand format. I particularly like the thorough treatments of Nyquist filtering, the Shannon channel capacity formula, and the concept of Eb/N0. The author clearly has a deep understanding and mastery of the subject, and he presents the material in a well-organized and clear format. My intuitive understanding of the subject has greatly improved as a result of reading this book. It complements the books by Sklar and Proakis, and I would recommend it to any serious student of digital communications.
