A First Course in Information Theory is an up-to-date introduction to information theory. In addition to the classical topics discussed, it provides the first comprehensive treatment of the theory of I-Measure, network coding theory, Shannon and non-Shannon type information inequalities, and a relation between entropy and group theory. ITIP, a software package for proving information inequalities, is also included. With a large number of examples, illustrations, and original problems, this book is excellent as a textbook or reference book for a senior or graduate level course on the subject,...

ulti-carrier modulation Orthogonal Frequency Division Multi- Mplexing (OFDM) particularly has been successfully applied to a wide variety of digital communications applications over the past several years. Although OFDM has been chosen as the physical layer standard for a diversity of important systems the theory algorithms and implementation techniques remain subjects of current interest. This is clear from the high volume of papers appearing in technical journals and conferences. Multi-carrier modulation continues to evolve rapidly. It is hoped that this book will remain a valuable summary...

This text evolved from notes used to teach two-semester courses on multi-port signals and systems theory and vector-valued signal transmission to third-year electrical and computer engineering students. It is also based on the author's tutorial courses on the subject presented to practicing engineers in industry. The primary motivation has been to familiarize the reader with the essential tools and methods used to describe the dynamic behavior of electrical multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) systems. The book shall provide a basic understanding of the fundamentals, implementation, and of...

Here is a thorough, not-overly-complex introduction to the three technical foundations for multimedia applications across the Internet: communications (principles, technologies and networking); compressive encoding of digital media; and Internet protocol and services. All the contributing systems elements are explained through descriptive text and numerous illustrative figures; the result is a book well-suited toward non-specialists, preferably with technical background, who need well-composed tutorial introductions to the three foundation areas. The text discusses the latest advances in...

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. Although there are advantages of such design in wireline networks as well, this approach is particularly advantageous for wireless networks due to the properties (such as mobility and interference) that strongly affect performance and design of higher layer protocols. This unique monograph is concerned with the issue of cross-layer design in wireless networks, and more...

Dear Reader, Thank you for investing your time into this book devoted to the fascinating world of Digital Satellite Communications. This is an Edited book which possesses some peculiarities that we believe make it different from other books of the kind. In fact, this book is the result of the joint effort of some sixty co- Authors who took part to a common European Research Project, named SatNEx, i.e. the European Network of Excellence (NoE) in Satellite Communications. This NoE is an instrument funded by the European Commission under the sixth Framework Programme (FP6), within the thematic...

Cellular Communications is about Service, Technology and Economy. Public awareness and safety is considered the fourth dimension in the equation, that rolls back to impact all of the other three. Mobile communications has become an indispensable element of modem lifestyle. The 3G cellular systems focus on high data-rate multimedia services and a host of respective applications, mostly leisure-time oriented. At the other extreme, mobile communications is a most effective driving force in boosting the economy of developing communities. These two processes may share technology momentum and the...
