Summary
  • Synchronization Techniques for Digital Receivers is the first book to offer a clear and solid framework for understanding various techniques and applications to modem design.
  • The authors draw on their considerable research experience to provide a clear introduction to the state of the art in digital synchronization for data transmission systems. They use the basic concepts of parameter estimation theory to systematically derive synchronization algorithms that can be implemented in fully digital form. While the transmission medium is normally modeled as an additive Gaussian noise channel, their text considers frequency-flat fading channels in depth.
  • Professors Mengali and D'Andrea present precise indications on the performance of the most important synchronization schemes available today. They systematically use upper bounds as benchmarks of the performance of the synchronizers in question, allowing the designer to easily comprehend the practicality of a candidate synchronizer, and how much room there may be for improvement.
  • In addition, graphs and charts help the designer to readily grasp the usefulness of the candidate schemes and make comparisons with alternative solutions. Exercises inserted throughout the text serve as convenient means for students to apply the proposed techniques.
  • This noteworthy volume will prove useful for design engineers and researchers in the telecommunications industry. It will also be profitably used as supplementary material in digital transmission courses or as a text for graduate-level coursework in synchronization or digital modem design.
