Modern Digital and Analog Communication Systems

Modern Digital and Analog Communication Systems, XE Fifth Edition (MDAC 5eXE), is the latest edition of the landmark communications systems textbook by one of electrical engineering's most prolific educators, B.P. Lathi, and co-author Zhi Ding. The Fifth Edition features over 200 fully worked-through examples incorporating current technology, an expansive amount of illustrations throughout the book, MATLAB codes throughout, and a full review of key signals andsystems concepts. As digital communication technology has become important part of daily life, enrollment in courses on communications engineering has increased. Communications systemscourses are now one of the most popular upper-level EE offerings because of intense student interest in the topic. In the new edition, Drs. Lathi and Ding have updated the book's examples to reflect current technology and including more MATLAB coding where appropriate.

“The authors' writing style is engaging and fun to read. The book gives the students a good introduction to analog and digital communication that can be covered in one course without prior knowledge to probability theory.”

Very good presentation of topics related to modern communication systems at both undergraduate and first-year graduate levels. Also, contains someMatlab examples that are useful for students. Manohar Das, Oakland University
This is an excellent textbook with clear and in-depth presentation of key topics in communication systems, along with valuable Matlab examples. Shengli Zhou, University of Connecticut
This is one of the most comprehensive introductory textbooks in communication systems available now. Each chapter presents fundamental concepts aswell as a host of basic and advanced applications. Yang Zhao, Wayne State University

B.P. Lathi is Professor Emeritus at California State University - Sacramento. An authorial impresario, he is the author of Signals and Systems (2000), Linear Systems and Signal Processing (2nd Edition 2004), Modern Digital and Analog Communication Systems (4th Edition 2009), and the forthcoming Digital Signal Processing (2014). Dr. Lathi is renowned for his excellent writing, and each of his books has found significant markets in the crowded upper-level electricalengineering segment.Zhi Ding is the Child Family Endowed Professor of Engineering and Entrepreneurship, at University of California - Davis. His research contributions cover a broad range of signal processing and communication problems including wireless transceiver optimization, blind channel estimation and equalization, multi-input-multi-output communications, multiuser detection, source separation, adaptive signal processing, parameter estimation, radar target discrimination, multimedia wirelesscommunications, and cross-layer wireless communications. He has published over 200 refereed papers and book chapters. He received the IEEE Outstanding Instructor of the Year Award in 2002 for contributions toelectrical engineering education from the IEEE student section in University of California, Davis.
