Basic Communication Theory Summary

Basic Communication Theory by Pearson

This book is intended to help undergraduate students to understand the basic ideas and methods used for the modulation of signals in communication systems. The core of the material is in three broad areas of modulation - analogue, keying and digital. An explanation of the basic ideas of communication theory is followed by sections on the definitions and mathematics involved in signal representation.
