Error-Control Coding for Data Networks

From the Publisher: This book takes a structured approach to channel-coding, starting with the basic coding concepts and working gradually towards the most sophisticated coding systems. The most popular applications are described throughout the book. These applications include the channel-coding techniques used in mobile communication systems such as: the global system for mobile communications (GSM) and the code-division multiple-access (CDMA) systems, coding schemes for High-Definition TeleVison (HDTV) systems, the Compact Disk (CD), and Digital Video Disk (DVD), as well as the error-control protocols for the datalink layers of networks, and much more.
