Riassunto

Since the first edition of this book was published seven years ago, the field of modeling and simulation of communication systems has grown and matured in many ways, and the use of simulation as a day-to-day tool is now even more common practice. With the current interest in digital mobile communications, a primary area of application of modeling and simulation is now in wireless systems of a different flavor from the `traditional' ones.
This second edition represents a substantial revision of the first, partly to accommodate the new applications that have arisen. New chapters include material on modeling and simulation of nonlinear systems, with a complementary section on related measurement techniques, channel modeling and three new case studies; a consolidated set of problems is provided at the end of the book.

Recensione:

From reviews of the first edition:
`An excellent and long overdue addition to the literature ... Identifies the important concepts and techniques necessary for an introductory understanding of the field ... [This book is] highly recommended for anyone developing a simulation of a communication system, using simulation program for the design or analysis of a communication system, or considering the application of these tools to their own design and analysis problems.'
William H. Tranter, IEEE Communications Magazine
