Telecommunications Demystified

“Professor Nassar has an uncanny ability to demystify the complexities
of telecommunications systems engineering.” Dale N. Hatfield, former
chief, Office of Engineering and Technology, Federal Communications
Commission

Book Provides a Worthy Telecomm Course:
Continuing
its Demystifying Technology series, LLH Technology Publishing’s
Telecommunications Demystified by Carl R. Nassar provides a
wide-ranging tutorial on theory and practical issues using the
requisite math and equations. This book does not provide primarily a
circuit-design or even a system-level, block-diagram treatment;
instead, it seeks to explain the underlying principles, problems,
techniques, and constraints of standard telecommunication functions.
The book covers networks, source coding/decoding, modulators and
demodulators, channel coding and decoding, trellis-coded modulation,
filtering and equalizers, signal detection and estimation, and error
detection and correction, among other topics.

I won’t mislead
you and say this book is an easy read or a quick read. If you plan to
get the most out of it, you need to pay attention and follow the
equations and derivations, which include integrals, differentials,
matrices, and more. Fortunately, the author clearly explains the
transitions from one equation to the next without those fear-inducing
phrases, such as “we can see,” “the derivation is left as an exercise
to the reader,” and “it can be shown.” If you want to increase your
understanding of the issues and answers in digital-communications
systems and some analog systems, this book should help. It also
includes a CD-ROM with a searchable version of the book and tutorials
that support topics in the text.
