Channel Equalization for Wireless Communications / IEEE Press Series on Digital & Mobile Communication (PDF)

The most thorough, up-to-date reference on channel
equalization--from basic concepts to complex modeling
techniques

In today's instant-access society, a high premium is placed on
information that can be stored and communicated effectively. As a
result, storage densities and communications rates are being pushed
to capacity, causing information symbols to interfere with one
another. To help unclog pathways for the clearer conveyance of
information, this book offers in-depth discussion of the
significant contributions and future adaptability of channel
equalization and a set of approaches for solving the problem of
intersymbol interference (ISI). Chapter explorations in Channel
Equalization include:

* Channel equalization topics presented with incremental learning
methodology--from the very fundamental concept to more
advanced mathematical knowledge

* Coverage of technology used in second-, third- and
fourth-generation cellular communication systems

* A set of homework problems that reinforce concepts discussed in
the book

* Tutorial explanations of recent developments currently captured
in IEEE technical journals

Unlike existing digital communications books that devote cursory
attention to channel equalization, this invaluable guide addresses
a crucial need by focusing solely on the background, current state,
and future direction of this increasingly important technology. A
unique mix of basic concepts and complex frameworks for delivering
digitized data make Channel Equalization a valuable
reference for all practicing wireless communication engineers and
students dealing with the pressing demands of the information
age.
