Customer Reviews

Complete and rigorous
I'm taking a graduate course of digital communications and using Proakis' book along with Sklar's one. The 2nd one is a very illustrative, book very interesting to read and easy to follow, but when you wanna go further you must go to Proakis' book. This is a more deep reference, who takes more emphasys on mathematical and stochastic models to explain why thing happens in digital communications. In this sense, this book is rigorous, and along with Sklar's book form a very interesting/complemented reference.

This is the most advanced modern text on basic Communication Theory
This is the most advanced and rigorous modern text on basic Communication Theory. It is a fundamental companion reference for my activities as a Communication Engineer at Thales Alenia Space.
