Introduction to Wireless Digital Communication: A Signal Processing Perspective delivers an accessible guide to modern wireless communication for undergraduates, graduates, and practicing electrical engineers. Building on a signal processing foundation that requires no prior courses on analog or digital communication, this definitive text:

• Establishes  the principles of digital communication from a signal processing perspective, including key mathematical background, transmitter and receiver algorithms, and channel models

• Focuses on the complex pulse amplitude modulation approach used in most commercial wireless systems

• Describes specific receiver algorithms for implementing wireless communication links, including synchronization, carrier frequency offset estimation, channel estimation, and equalization

• Presents least-squares estimation techniques that build on the linear algebra typically taught to electrical engineering undergraduates

• Extends single-antenna concepts to contemporary MIMO systems, including SIMO, MISO, and MIMO-OFDM

Thus, Introduction to Wireless Digital Communication makes digital communication and receiver algorithms for wireless systems broadly accessible, with chapter previews, bullet-point summaries, examples, and numerous homework problems to promote learning.
