Software Receiver Design cover

Learn the key concepts and get hands-on experience with this step-by-step guide to constructing a fully functioning software receiver.

With this hands-on, step-by-step guide, students use MATLAB to construct the various pieces of a communication system and learn to integrate all the elements into a fully functional software receiver. Coverage of crucial issues, such as timing, carrier recovery and equalization, is included, together with over 400 practical exercises.Have you ever wanted to know how modern digital communications systems work? Find out with this step-by-step guide to building a complete digital radio that includes every element of a typical, real-world communication system. Chapter by chapter, you will create a MATLAB realization of the various pieces of the system, exploring the key ideas along the way, as well as analyzing and assessing the performance of each component. Then, in the final chapters, you will discover how all the parts fit together and interact as you build the complete receiver. In addition to coverage of crucial issues, such as timing, carrier recovery and equalization, the text contains over 400 practical exercises, providing invaluable preparation for industry, where wireless communications and software radio are becoming increasingly important.
