Analogue and Digital Communication Techniques

By Grahame Smillie and Graham Smillie
This book covers the principles behind analog and digital communication systems and adopts a less mathematical approach than is often at this level. It begins with basic principles such as information systems, data compression, and error detection before moving on to more advanced topics such as systems code modification systems and digital microwave systems. Data protocols are also provided so that the reader can better understand more complex communication systems. -Digital and analog communication technologies- are designed for students studying HND electronic communication courses, but will also be useful for undergraduate students in similar courses. Presumably some knowledge of basic electronics.
