Absolute must have for academic-types. Coding are studied by EE students worldwide.However, this book is much-much-more.The books 924 pages contain a wide assortment of articles written by this rare genius. Elementary cryptography and analysis of the Entropy of the written language; "communications secrecy" (which is quite honestly outdated by todays standards; but taken into context, the papers were valuable at the time.)Also obscure articles on "game theory" as it applies to the field of "artificial intelligence" which at the time, he was a pioneer (along with other great minds including Turing, Minsky, etc..) Also, his articles on early computers and automata, and optimizing circuits so as to use less relays, etc.. are also quite interesting... Yes, the man was mortal, and to show that he wasn't all mathemetician, Shannon writes a fascinating article on the physics of JUGGLING..The book comes with an introductory chapter which contains a somewhat adequate biography, and an interview with OMNI Magazine which was published in 1987. This is definately a book which should be on the shelf of anyone serious about the subject.Yes, there are much more technical books on the subject. If you have a PhD in EE or mathematics, you might not be impressed... but Shannon's "easy writing style" which differs from some of the "dry" IEEE writings of today makes for an interesting read; if only for remembering history.-S.A.

Editorial Review Product Description A common theoretical framework is developed around the idea of apost-Shannon approach to designing communications systems. In manyways, modern wireless technology is pushing beyond the conventionallimits of Claude Shannon’s celebrated "communications theory."Topics like multipath fading and other channel phenomena are viewed ina new light – no longer as simply unavoidable sources ofdegradation, but as potential resources for additional information andsignal robustness. This is the first in a series of leading-edge volumes onnext-generation wireless systems and technologies authored by GeorgeM. Calhoun. Customer Reviews (3)
Good read for intuitive understand physical layer techniques
3G Physical Layer Dynamite !!!!
All you ever wanted to know about wireless Is not intimidating with formulas and equations but gives you overview of the technology. Gives good grasp of where it's heading And no Shanon is still valid rather he is pointing out ways in which Shanon limits can be side stepped by moving around either in frequency or space or time Also gives indictaion why rake recivers are so powerful. This book will show you the overall technology, trend and implications.But if you want to learn how to design a 6 fingered rake reciever this is not it. ... Read more |
