Description: Starting with a pragmatic review of deterministic and probabilistic analysis techniques, this book considers a wide variety of issues affecting telecommunications system architecture, design and performance. Coverage includes queueing models, probabilities of busy signals or call delays; noise effects; entropy and channel capacity. Coverage also includes sampling, quantizing, companding, digitizing and reconstructing voice signals; binary signal formats; estimating power spectral densities; reducing intersymbol interference; error detection and correction. Understand throughput issues; how to correct bursty errors; how to provide access to shared media; digital modulation; spread spectrum techniques; characteristics of wire cables; crosstalk; optical, cellular and satellite systems, and more.
