Telecommunications Breakdown: Concepts of Communication Transmitted via Software-Defined Radio
暫譯: 電信崩潰：透過軟體定義無線電傳輸的通信概念

Summary

This book reflects the recent shift in telecommunications technology from hardware to software by focusing on the design of a digital software-defined radio. Telecommunications Breakdown helps readers build a complete digital radio that includes each part of a typical digital communication system. KEY TOPICS: By following each chapter, users create a Matlab realization of the various pieces of a typical digital communication system, exploring key ideas along the way. It defines the three steps in the creation of a working digital radio: building the pieces, assessing the performance of the pieces, and integrating the pieces together. In the final chapter, the reader “puts it all together” to build a fully functional receiver (not operational in real time). MARKET: For workers in the field of telecommunications.
