Review:	"This is a recommended book for any academic library and a must book for the personal libraries of design engineers." - E-Streams "This handbook has three goals: 'provide a straight-forward, no-nonsense guide to practical design validation,' 'to help design engineers who may be neglecting their math skills to recapture the wonderful sense of satisfaction that results from truly understanding a design,' and 'to be used as a practical design assistant.' All three goals have been met in this concise and well-written book." - E-Streams -- Review

Digital Communication Over Fading Channels

 

Title:	Digital Communication Over Fading Channels
Author:	Marvin K. Simon ,Mohamed-Slim Alouini
Pages:	936 pages
Publisher:	Publisher: Wiley-IEEE Press; 2 edition (December 6, 2004)
Language:	English
ISBN-10:	0471649538
ISBN-13:	978-0471649533
Dimensions:	9.4 x 6.8 x 1.9 inches
File Type:	PDF
Size:	3.66 MB
Description:	The four short years since Digital Communication over Fading Channels became an instant classic have seen a virtual explosion of significant new work on the subject, both by the authors and by numerous researchers around the world. Foremost among these is a great deal of progress in the area of transmit diversity and space-time coding and the associated multiple input–multiple output (MIMO) channel. This new edition gathers these and other results, previously scattered throughout numerous publications, into a single convenient and informative volume. Like its predecessor, this Second Edition discusses in detail coherent and noncoherent communication systems as well as a large variety of fading channel models typical of communication links found in the real world. Coverage includes single- and multichannel reception and, in the case of the latter, a large variety of diversity types. The moment generating function (MGF)–based approach for performance analysis, introduced by the authors in the first edition and referred to in literally hundreds of publications, still represents the backbone of the book's presentation. Important features of this new edition include: An all-new, comprehensive chapter on transmit diversity, space-time coding, and the MIMO channel, focusing on performance evaluation Coverage of new and improved diversity schemes Performance analyses of previously known schemes in new and different fading scenarios A new chapter on the outage probability of cellular mobile radio systems A new chapter on the capacity of fading channels And much more Digital Communication over Fading Channels, Second Edition is an indispensable resource for graduate students, researchers investigating these systems, and practicing engineers responsible for evaluating their performance.
