Recommended books for the communication Physical Layer

Source: Internet
Author: User

Several classic books are recommended to learn the essential features of the wireless communication Physical Layer

1. Digital communications 4th edition John G. Proakis
I don't need to talk about this book. Many foreign schools use this book as a teaching material for digital communication courses for graduate students. The main feature of this book is that, starting from the basic knowledge of digital communication, many things have a strict derivation process. Of course, reading this book at the beginning is still very difficult, but if you can calm down and spend half a year or one year thoroughly reading this book, you are no longer far away from communication experts.

2. Fundamentals of Wireless Communication David Tse (Berkeley)
It is said that the author is a famous Galleger student. This book is the best wireless communication teaching material I have ever seen, unlike other wireless communication principles textbooks, he spends a lot of time talking about some old technologies and some practical commercial systems, he summarized existing communication technologies from a relatively high level and system perspective, and analyzed many seemingly completely unrelated technologies in a unified mathematical expression, in particular, the popular technologies such as MIMO, Opportunistic Communication, OFDM, and multi-user Communication have been interpreted from the viewpoint of information theory, this is helpful for us to grasp the current development direction of wireless communication at a higher level. We strongly recommend this!

3. Andrea Goldsmith (Stanford)
A relatively new and comprehensive wireless communication teaching material, this book basically follows the traditional system, it not only describes the channel model, modulation, encoding, diversity, balancing, spread spectrum and other traditional content, we also talked about relatively new content such as MIMO and empty time codes, Ad hoc, multi-carrier, and multi-user diversity, at the same time, we also analyze the channel capacity of different channels (AWGN, fading, MIMO, broadcast, and multiple access) from the Information Theory Perspective, so that you can clearly see the objectives of various technical designs.

4. wireless communications principles and practice, second edition Theodore S. Rappaport
This book, together with Digital communications 4th edition, was one of the two essential books for learning wireless communication. The printing plates published by the e-Industry Publishing House sell a lot. This book is about wireless channels. It is said that this company is currently engaged in software and equipment related to channel measurement, network Planning may be used by friends), but the latter part of the value is not too great, especially for some old systems, it seems that too much ink.

It is indeed a classic book. Reading the first three books several times is hard to understand. Let's take a look at it first. Read a piece of literature for simulation. There will be a lot of GAINS. Do not deduce formulas, but the physical meanings described in the book must be taken into consideration. The digital communication of proakis is a very basic book for beginners. Many schools are now textbooks. There are not many TSE formulas, and the concept of physics is very clear. Goldsmith's book is comprehensive, almost comprehensive, and the depth should be just right. The fourth book can be used as an undergraduate textbook for mobile communication. Skyslee2005 was published on
Thank you very much ................... Biezs published on
Supplement: the first book has a Chinese version, which is translated by China mail. I feel that the translation is basically good.
No Chinese version is currently available for the second and third versions.
4th has a Chinese version and beiyou translation. I personally feel that the translation is poor. I think it is better to see the English version. shliu8833 was published on.
Okay !! Thank you !! It seems that china-pub only has Chinese characters !! Biezs published on
The First and Fourth Books are English audio and video versions, which are published by the Electronics Industry Publishing House. Article 2 and Article 3 have not seen longdi published on
If you agree with the landlord, we suggest you recommend more good books,
To avoid future detours.
In addition, I think [Lee & Messerschmitt] and others write Digital Communication.
This book is much more readable than Proakis, especially the balanced part. Currently, this book has been published in the third edition.

For some special fields, such as MIMO, OFDM, CDMA, channel coding, wireless resource management, and other fields, you can recommend them. Thank you! Longdi was published on
Concerning MIMO, I think Space-Time Processing for MIMO Communications
Edited by A. B. Gershman and N. D. Sidiropoulos are not bad.
Introduction to space time wireless communications are much inferior to those in the industry.

Wireless resource management has never seen any good book, Jens Zander
Maybe it's good, but it's mainly about cdma. It's a little old.
Technologies and Cross-Layer Designs for Wireless Systems
With Multiple Antennas Theory and Applications
And
OFDM-Based.Broadband.Wireless.Networks.Design.and.Optimization
Maybe it's about RRM, and people who want to see it give a comment.

By the way: Wireless Communications-Signal Processing Perspectives
How is this book? The authors of each chapter are very good.

Regarding cdma, I think:

Jhong Sam Lee's CDMA Systems Engineering Handbook is a good book,
I have read the translation version, which was published by Tsinghua translation and the Mechanical Industry Press.

Viterbi's CDMA: Principles of Spread Spectrum Communication is famous,
However, I have only seen Chinese characters, but it is not very good. It is probably because of poor translation.

The Spread Spectrum Communications Handbook of Marvin K. Simon, Jim K. Omura, and others has not been read,
The authors are very good. It's good to think about it.

I haven't seen much about channel coding, but I want the Gallager book Information Theory and
Reliable Communication is essential for getting started with coding.

Gallager's book Information Theory and Reliable Communication is all very good. Unfortunately, I have not read it yet, and this book has not been electronically written.

Comparison of the new three books on channel coding: error control coding 2nd, Lin shu & costello cannot find an electronic version
Error Correction Coding: Mathematical Methods and Algorithms Todd K Moon
Modern coding theory Richard & Urbanke
The first two books fully talk about various channel coding and their mathematical Basics
The third part is mainly the research results of their research group, which mainly focuses on the low-income and low-income checksum codes. Swas was published
In terms of information theory, the "elements of information theory" of T. Cover is also good. Biezs published on

A. alan. hoffman, although not all, I think the evaluation is more objective. Well, I 'd like to give you a reference and see how many books you have read. hoho, I will not translate them.
1 Principles of Communication Engineering
By John M. Wozencraft, Irwin Mark jacbs (Hardcover-June 1990)

"Deepest" communication theory book ever written. The treatment is
Unlike anything you'll find in Proakis or Sklar; albeit more focused and less
Breadth coverage.

2 Digital Communications: Fundamentals and Applications (2nd Edition)
By Bernard Sklar has Chinese and photocopies
Sklar is a modern day author who has the gift of explaining like the great John Robinson Pierce. Between Sklar or Proakis, each has it's merits.

3 Digital Communications by John Proakis has Chinese and photocopies
Slightly more rigorous than Sklar. Proakis 'digital Communications is nearly identical to Sklar in breadth of coverage... but each book has a slightly different emphasis based on the authors expertise

4 Communication Systems Engineering (2nd Edition)
By John G. Proakis, Masoud Salehi has Chinese Characters
Slightly more to the point than Proakis '"Digital Communications." This is my main reference book whenever I want to look something up real quick without having to wade through 1024 pages.

5 Information Theory and Reliable Communication
By Robert G. Gallager one of my favorite books!
Blows away Cover and Thomas '"Elements of Information Theory." Both are good books. However, the focus of Gallager is channel coding, not source coding.

6 Elements of Information Theory by Thomas M. Cover, Joy A. Thomas has photocopies and Chinese versions
Elements is an adequate book which is not in the same class as Gallager's book, but it does cover topics specific topics better than Gallager.

7 An Introduction to Information Theory
By Fazlollah M. Reza
This is bar-none the best introductory to medium level information theory book ever written. VERY comprehensive. Well written with examples. The math is first year calculus at most.

8 clude E. Shannon: Collected Papers
By clude Elwood Shannon
It's tempting to say that this shoshould be a budding information theorists first read. Truth is, that some of Shannon's papers are amazingly difficult to comprehend. Shannon truly was a genius.

9 Mathematical Theory of Communication
By krade Shannon, Warren Weaver
This book is an adaptation of Shannon's original paper. Definately a must read for future information theorists.

10 Information Theory: 50 Years of Discovery
By Sergio Verdu (Editor), Steven W. McLaughlin (Editor)
The collected papers in this IEEE book are wonderful. Worth thousands of leisure hours of study and fun. My favorite book !!

11 Key Papers in the Development of Coding Theory
By Elwyn Berlekamp
Another fine IEEE collection of papers. A must have for future coding theorists.

12 Key Papers in the Development of Information Theory
By D. Slepian
I like this colection also, but the Coding theory collection has better paper picks in my opinion.

13 Fundamentals of Statistical Signal Processing, Volume I: Estimation Theory by Steven M. Kay has a Chinese version
This is the first of the 2 part volume by Kay. Personally, I prefer volume II (Detection) as it's more practical.

14 Fundamentals of Statistical Signal Processing, Volume 2: Detection Theory by Steven M. Kay has a Chinese version
The coverage of hypothesis testing is vital for the communications engineer; goes along nice as a complement to the Van Trees book.

15 Concatenated Codes
By G. David Forney
This is Forney's original monoraph based on his dissertation. Concatenated Coding remained the "gold standard" in coding for 30 + years. a must read!

16 Trellis Coding
By Christian Schlegel
Although there are only 2 good Trellis coding books out there, this is fairly well written. Quite technical in some parts, but not enough "practical" and breath information.

17 Convolutional Coding: Fundamentals and Applications
By Charles Lee,
Probably THE most well written book on convolution coding. Fairly comprehensive, understandable by most undergraduates, although leaves out some of the hard-core stuff which is not the books focus.

18 'Surely you' re Joking, Mr. Feynman! 'The Chinese version is available. Chinese name: No problem, Mr. feeman! (?)
By Richard P. Feynman
The book that made me a certified feynman fan !! Feynman, nobel prize winning physicist, has a whole series of books. His lifetime of anecdotal stories have earned him millions of dedicated fans.

19 The Feynman Lectures on Physics: Commemorative Issue, Three
Volume Set has photocopies and Chinese versions, but both of them are expensive. Chinese name: Feynman physics handout
This Feynman collector set is both a phenomenol read and immensely famous. shocould be on the shelf of every student, scientist, or enthusiast who truly loves physics.

20 The Essential John Nash by John Nash is one of The most important pioneers in game theory. Nash was born in. He studied at the Carnegie Institute of Technology from to. He obtained a bachelor's and master's degree in and entered the Princeton mathematics department in. It is said that the letter of recommendation from a professor at the Carnegie Institute of Technology has only one sentence: this guy is a genius! (This man is a genius) (Harold Kuhn, 1995, "The work of John Nash in Game Theory") completed his doctoral thesis in 1949, with only 28 pages, cool!
Yes ,... THAT John Nash... this is the technical book, not the biography which used red the movie "A Beautiful Mind. "It contains papers on topology and his other famous theorems. sure to educate!

21 Sphere Packings, Lattices and Groups
By John Horton Conway, Neil J. A. Sloane
Sloane, as the fields leading researcher, has produce a tome. This is very useful for both mathemeticians and moreover EE's who study lattice and packings as applied to channel coding theory.

22 Capitalism and Freedom by Milton Friedman have Chinese characters, but they are not in contact with communications and information theory. Chinese names: Capitalism and Freedom, business press
Milton Friedman is a master economist. His writings ring true decades later. Also recommend Miltons: Price Theory, Essays in Positive Economics, Free to Choose, & The Road to Surfdom.

I would like to recommend a book about blind and semi-blind channel estimation,
Signal processing advances in wireless & Mobile communications volume 1 Trends in channel estimation and equalization.
The book describes many of the most popular methods from blind faith to prediction, such as those based on subspace and precoding. However, the theoretical explanation in this book is very obscure. The main content of each chapter is based on some IEEE transcation paper. The book is quite new.

In addition, the book I want to recommend may be more suitable for reading a few books that I want to introduce before, laying a good foundation.
Digital and analog communication systems 6th ed by Leon W. Couch
I think this book is suitable for people who are still unclear or confused about the concept of communication principles. I think it will be of great help to read the book after reading this book. Leolx1983 published on

I don't know if anyone is interested in smart antenna. A book I know is a must-read book for my school to study the Phd of smart antenna.
Smart antennas for wireless communications: IS-95 and third generation CDMA applications/Joseph C. Liberti, Jr., Theodore S. Rappaport.
I think they all have one copy.
I have read only the previous chapters. Njbbx published on
Communication Systems (4ed Haykin), this book is especially suitable for beginners and is a good undergraduate course. Digital Communication basics and applications Sklar. b. This book describes channel coding in detail. This book introduces digital communication describes modulation and demodulation in detail. However, there are many mathematical formulas that require a certain amount of mathematical skills and patience, orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing for Wireless Communications Ye (Geoffrey) Li; Gordon L. stuber; this book is quite good. After all, Ye Li is the author of ofdm channel estimation. Redfox80 published on

The book tells me a lot...
The book you recommended was written by Giannakis, which is indeed obscure. He mainly studies channel estimation and detection, and has a lot of academic achievements. Redfox80 published on
The books on channel coding have been summarized. You can refer to the following two posts.

I have read the first two books.
The first one is very good. If you want to thoroughly understand it, you will be invincible. It is very theoretical.
The second article focuses on the system. In contrast, amdyang, published on
I think simon has a good book. blestrabbit was published.
Both the second and third versions have Chinese versions. I have not found an English version for sale.
But the translation of TSE is not good. Fath was published on
These books can be thoroughly understood. llsky320 was published on.
We recommend that you use Prokis's "Communication System Engineering" and Sklar's "digital communication".
The former can be used as the entry-level material for the typical digital communication of Prokis, and the latter is easy to understand and get started. Llsky320 published on
