Kurzbeschreibung
A systematic explanation of the principles of radio systems, Digital Radio System Design offers a balanced treatment of both digital transceiver modems and RF front-end subsystems and circuits. It provides an in-depth examination of the complete transceiver chain which helps to connect the two topics in a unified system concept. Although the book tackles such diverse fields it treats them in sufficient depth to give the designer a solid foundation and an implementation perspective.
Covering the key concepts and factors that characterise and impact radio transmission and reception, the book presents topics such as receiver design, noise and distortion. Information is provided about more advanced aspects of system design such as implementation losses due to non-idealities. Providing vivid examples, illustrations and detailed case-studies, this book is an ideal introduction to digital radio systems design.
* Offers a balanced treatment of digital modem and RF front-end design concepts for complete transceivers
* Presents a diverse range of topics related to digital radio design including advanced transmission and synchronization techniques with emphasis on implementation
* Provides guidance on imperfections and non-idealities in radio system design
* Includes detailed design case-studies incorporating measurement and simulation results to illustrate the theory in practice
Synopsis
This book provides the background for the system designer in order to design and develop subsystems of a digital radio communication system or to integrate a full transceiver for a variety of applications. Such subsystems can be the radio front-end section, the radio-base band interface, the digital base band transceiver or even smaller subsystems like the image rejection mixer in the front-end, the synthesized local oscillator, or the digital synchronization system. The main strength of the book is the systematic synthesis of recent achievements in electronics and, communications aiming at the design of complex systems which require expertise in more than one area. These areas are radio frequency electronics, communication theory and digital signal processing. This book: Brings together the disciplines of communications, RF microelectronics and digital processing which enables system designers to design a full digital radio system Has a strong emphasis on design supported by a separate chapter with extended design examples.
The design examples will be a DECT system and a transceiver employing a QAM modem Is the first to provide a balanced treatment of transceivers as complete systems
