Digital Techniques for Wideband Receivers (Artech House Radar Library)

As communication bandwidth increases, many of the communications hardware considerations and digital signal processing approaches primarily designed for EW receivers are becoming equally applicable to communication receivers. This is an up-to-date survey of practical design techniques for receiver systems engineers that includes problems, solutions, design procedures, real-life examples, and Matlab programs. This book contains a comprehensive description of digital processing applicable to wideband receivers. It explains the requirements of wideband digital RF receivers, provides numerous solutions to receiver problems, and gives an overview of future trends in receiver development. The text is intended for electronic warfare engineers, receiver designers, communications engineers, and those working in digital hardware processing. It features 753 equations, and 192 figures.
