Modeling of Digital Communication Systems Using SIMULINK

A comprehensive and detailed treatment of the program SIMULINK® that focuses on SIMULINK® for simulations in Digital and Wireless Communications

Modeling of Digital Communication Systems Using SIMULINK® introduces the reader to SIMULINK®, an extension of the widely-used MATLAB modeling tool, and the use of SIMULINK® in modeling and simulating digital communication systems, including wireless communication systems. Readers will learn to model a wide selection of digital communications techniques and evaluate their performance for many important channel conditions. Modeling of Digital Communication Systems Using SIMULINK® is organized in two parts. The first addresses address Simulink® models of digital communications systems using various modulation, coding, channel conditions and receiver processing techniques. The second part provides a collection of examples, including speech coding, interference cancellation, spread spectrum, adaptive signal processing, Kalman filtering and modulation and coding techniques currently implemented in 4G wireless systems.

• Covers case examples, progressing from basic to complex
• Provides applications for 4G mobile communications, satellite communications, and fixed wireless systems that reveal the power of SIMULINK modeling
• Includes access to useable SIMULINK® simulations online

Covering both the use of SIMULINK® in digital communications and the complex aspects of wireless communication systems, Modeling of Digital Communication Systems UsingSIMULINK® is a great resource for both practicing engineers and students with MATLAB experience.
