The acknowledged Spread-Spectrum Bible the most complete reference in the field!INCLUDESCD-ROM CONTAININGTHE ENTIRE BOOKIN FULLY-SEARCHABLE PDFSpread-spectrum systems have found important commercial applications in CDMA cellular networks and wireless personal communication networks. Communications engineers and technicians now have ready access to a wealth of spread-spectrum information in this exhaustive handbook the most comprehensive and authoritative compendium on spread-spectrum systems available anywhere.Written by recognized authorities in the field,the Handbook presents both theoretical basics and practical applications,providing succinct,results-oriented solutions to engineering problems. Starting with basic concepts and system models,the book covers: Anti-jamming communication systems Coherent direct-sequence systems Non-coherent frequency-hopped systems Coherent and differentially coherent modulation techniques Pseudonoise acquistion and tracking in direct sequence receivers Time and frequency synchronization of frequency-hopped receivers Low probability of intercept communications In addition,it offers an in-depth look at multiple access communications and positioning systems and discusses the growth of spread-spectrum applications.
