Precoding and Signal Shaping for Digital Transmission

Informationen zum Autor ROBERT F. H. FISCHER received his PhD in electrical engineering from the University of Erlangen-Nürnberg, where he is now a member of the Telecommunications Institute, teaching graduate courses in digital communications and supervising various research projects. Previously he held a postdoctoral position at the IBM Research Laboratory in Zurich, where he worked on algorithms and the implementation of PCM voice-band modems. His current work concentrates on fast digital transmission, including single- and multicarrier modulation techniques. Dr. Fischer is the recipient of several awards and holds more than ten international patents in the field of digital communications. Klappentext Provides a step-by-step description of the basics of precoding and signal shaping.* Illustrates theory with examples from wireline and wireless communications.* Discusses the role of precoding and signal shaping algorithms in communications standards. Zusammenfassung As the amount of data being transmitted over communications networks continues to increase, the dispersive nature of the channels (copper, fiber-optic or wireless) is becoming ever more important in determining the quality of the signal. The use of precoding and signal shaping techniques can significantly enhance signal quality. Inhaltsverzeichnis Preface. Introduction. Digital Communications via Linear, Distorting Channels.
