Digital Transmission Systems, Third Edition, is a comprehensive overview of the theory and practices of digital transmission systems used in digital communication. This new edition has been completely updated to include the latest technologies and newest techniques in the transmission of digitized information as well as coverage of digital transmission design, implementation and testing.
This updated second edition provides working answers to today's critical questions about designing and managing all types of data transmission systems and features a new chapter on local area networks (LANs). It presents comprehensive, ready-to-use information -from basic principles to advanced design techniques-on data transmission characteristics, systems, and applications, including: voice-grade, wideband, digital, radio, cable, satellite, and fiber-optic systems.
In the development of telecommunication networks throughout the world, digital transmission has now replaced analog transmission as the predominant choice for new transmission facilities. This trend began in the early 1960s when the American Telephone and Telegraph Company first introduced pulse code modulation as a means of increasing capacity in their cable plant. Since that time, digital transmission applications have grown dramatically, notably in the United States, Canada, Japan, and Western Europe. With the rapidity of digital transmission developments and imple mentation, however, there has been a surprising lack of textbooks written on the subject. This book grew out of my work, rese...

The new edition of this bestselling guide contains all the information needed to master the ever-growing complexities of contemporary digital transmission equipment. Encompassing the full scope of the field, this book has the answers for engineers seeking to design and implement high performance telecommunications. It covers LANs, fiber optics, satellite systems, state of the art digital cellular and PCS systems, Internet and Intranet transmission systems, bandwidth issues and more, all with a professional rather than theoretical focus.
