Communication Systems by Sanjay Sharma
Systems: Analog And Digital,
published in 2012, is designed for students of Electronics and Communication
Engineering. An analog system uses a continuous signal to represent
information, whereas a digital system uses discontinuous discrete values
instead.
This
book covers the syllabus that has been prescribed at most Indian universities.
The author starts off by explaining simple topics, and then moves onto complex
ones. Readers are first introduced to this subject by learning about
fundamental concepts of Communication Systems. With the use of probabilistic
theory, this textbook covers topics such as Signal Analysis and Transmission,
Amplitude and Angle Modulation. This helps in establishing a solid base to
understand the probability theory used to explain upcoming topics. Some
chapters include Performance of Communication Systems, Waveform Coding
Techniques, Performance Analysis of Digital Communication Systems, and Error
Control Coding.
Communication Systems: Analog
And Digital comprehensively covers the latest
developments in this field. Students learn about Global Positioning Systems
(GPS), Spread-Spectrum systems, and Cellular Communication systems. The author
had dedicated an entire chapter to new digital technologies like Video
compression, SONET, ATM, and others. The author has maintained a good balance
by including both theory as well as mathematics to explain all concepts. This
combination helps students to understand Communication Systems thoroughly.
At the beginning of each
chapter of Communication Systems: Analog
And Digital, an outline is provided so that readers know what topics are
covered in the upcoming section. Within the theory, key terms are highlighted
for the benefit of the students. At the end of every chapter, the author has
penned down summaries which list important points, making revision easier. In
addition to this, short answer questions have also been included. This book is
easy-to-read and is packed with many examples and illustrations. Additionally,
short biographies of people who have contributed to the field of communication
systems are also included. Communication Systems: Analog
And Digital is an
important book for anyone studying this engineering discipline.
