Informationen zum Autor Grigorios Kalivas, Applied Electronics Laboratory, Electrical Engineering Department of the University of Patras, Greece Dr Kalivas is a lecturer at the University of Patras. His research and development interests include receiver system design for wireless indoor and cellular communications and the design and implementation of tranceiver components and subsystems such as receiver front-end, frequency synthesizers and data synchronizers. His research areas include spread-spectrum communications, propagation measurements and channel modelling for portable radio systems in the 1GHz to 30GHz frequency range. Dr Kalivas has developed extensive expertise in every level of design and implementation of the physical layer of systems for wireless communications applications and in particular indoor portable radio at 1.75 GHz and wireless LANs and PCN at 30 GHz. Dr Kalivas has about 30 publications in IEEE journals and conferences. Klappentext A systematic explanation of the principles of radio systems, Digital Radio System Design offers a balanced treatment of both digital transceiver modems and RF front-end subsystems and circuits. It provides an in-depth examination of the complete transceiver chain which helps to connect the two topics in a unified system concept. Although the book tackles such diverse fields it treats them in sufficient depth to give the designer a solid foundation and an implementation perspective.Covering the key concepts and factors that characterise and impact radio transmission and reception, the book presents topics such as receiver design, noise and distortion. Information is provided about more advanced aspects of system design such as implementation losses due to non-idealities. Providing vivid examples, illustrations and detailed case-studies, this book is an ideal introduction to digital radio systems design.* Offers a balanced treatment of digital modem and RF front-end design concepts for complete transceivers* Presents a diverse range of topics related to digital radio design including advanced transmission and synchronization techniques with emphasis on implementation* Provides guidance on imperfections and non-idealities in radio system design* Includes detailed design case-studies incorporating measurement and simulation results to illustrate the theory in practice Zusammenfassung A systematic explanation of the principles of radio systems, Digital Radio System Design offers a balanced treatment of both digital transceiver modems and RF front-end subsystems and circuits.
