Error Control Systems for Digital Communication and Storage - Hardcover

Von der hinteren Coverseite

This introductory book on error control coding focuses on key implementation issues and performance analysis with applications valuable to both mathematicians and engineers.

FEATURES:

• features a complete discussion of punctured convolutional codes.
• includes full-chapter coverage of performance analysis of block codes, including code performance over the fading channel (i.e., cellular mobile phone systems).
• examines system implementation issues for the Viterbi Decoder and the various decoders for Reed-Solomon and BCH codes.
• devotes two full chapters to the theory of finite fields.
• features the most current research results on error control for channels with feedback.
• includes an entire chapter on trellis coded modulation.
• includes historical background and emphasizes practical, up-to-date applications (i.e., the space program) for all key areas in the book.
