Product Description

Product Description

Spread spectrum multiple access communication, known commercially as CDMA, is a driving technology behind the rapidly advancing personal communications industry. Written by a leader in the creation of CDMA and an internationally recognized authority on wireless digital communication, this book gives the reader the technical information necessary to grasp CDMA fundamentals.



From the Back Cover

Spread spectrum multiple access communication, known commercially as CDMA (Code Division Multiple Access), is a driving technology behind the rapidly advancing personal communications industry. Its greater bandwidth efficiency and multiple access capabilities make it the leading technology for relieving spectrum congestion caused by the explosion in popularity of cellular mobile and fixed wireless telephones and wireless data terminals.

CDMA has been adopted by the Telecommunications Industry Association (TIA) as a wireless standard. As an electrical or communications engineer, you must acquire a thorough grasp of CDMA fundamentals in order to develop systems, products, and services for this demanding but rewarding market.

Written by a leader in the creation of CDMA and an internationally recognized authority on wireless digital communication, this book gives you the technical information you need. It presents the fundamentals of digital communications and covers all aspects of commercial direct-sequence spread spectrum technology, incorporating both physical-level principles and network concepts. You will find detailed information on signal generation, synchronization, modulation, and coding of direct-sequence spread spectrum signals. In addition, the book shows how these physical layer functions relate to link and network properties involving cellular coverage, Erlang capacity, and network control.

With this book, you will attain a deeper understanding of personal communications system concepts and will be better equipped to develop systems and products at the forefront of the personal wireless communications market.

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent reading. Well structured and detail oriented., 10 Jul 1998
By A Customer
This book does a wonderful job in gradually building on the important aspects of spread spectrum technology. I liked the structure of the book more than anything else. It gradually explains important principles of CDMA technology, chapter by chapter. This book stands out from others in that the author had taken a very systematic approach in explaining each topic. This book covers all aspects of spread spectrum technology, and is good for people who are new to this field, too. I'd just suggest that readers do not get intimidated by the numerous mathematical equations present in this book. These equations merely help to explain the mathematical side of timing, sequence generation, modulation and demodulation, cell interferences, etc. Definitely not a bed-time reading book, but for a more serious reader who wants to learn about CDMA. One last word about the author...Andy Viterbi is a pioneer of this technology and commensurate with his reputation, he has done an excellent work on this text.

1.0 out of 5 stars I didn't find any of the topics that I need., 11 Nov 1998
By A Customer
I thought that the web site was poorly constructed. I had may URL servers not found on topics that were tangabile to what I am researching. I found this web site to be a great dis-appointment and completely useless. All of these facts are sad but true.
