Mengali Umberto, D'Andrea Aldo N. Synchronization Techniques for Digital Receivers

Springer, 1997. — 534 p.This is the first book to offer a clear and solid framework for understanding various techniques and applications to modem design. An accessible introduction to the state of the art in digital synchronization for data transmissions systems, the volume employs the basic concepts of parameter estimation theory to systematically derive synchronization algorithms that can be implemented in fully digital form and considers frequency-flat fading channels in depth. The authors present several chapters with new, cutting-edge data on frequency, phase and timing recovery in continuous-phase modulations. Graphs and charts aid comprehension, and exercises are inserted throughout the text.
