Introduction -- 2. Signals and systems -- 3. Amplitude modulation -- 4. Angle modulation -- 5. Pulse modulation and transmission -- 6. Probability and random processes -- 7. Noise in analog communications -- 8. Noise in digital communication systems -- Index N2 - Written specifically for a one-semester course, this textbook introduces the physical and engineering principles of communication systems using an accessible, yet mathematically rigorous, approach. Beginning with valuable background material on signals and systems, and random processes, the text then guides students through the core topics, including amplitude modulation, pulse modulation, and noise. Key terms and formulae are highlighted throughout to help students identify essential points easily. Worked examples, practice problems, and review questions reinforce concepts and enable students to develop confidence in solving problems on their own. ER -
