A comprehensive text that takes a unique top-down approach to teaching the fundamentals of digital communication for a one-semester course.

Recenzje

'This is an excellent introductory book on digital communications theory that is suitable for advanced undergraduate students and/or first-year graduate students, or alternatively for self-study. It achieves a nice degree of rigor in a clear, gentle, and student-friendly manner. The exercises alone are worth the price of the book.' Dave Forney, Massachusetts Institute of Technology
