Electronic Communications Systems (5th Edition)

Electronic Communications Systems: Fundamentals Through Advanced (Fifth Edition) By Wayne Tomasi

For courses in Introduction to Electronic Communications and Digital and Data Communications, this comprehensive, contemporary text introduces basic electronic and data communications fundamentals and explores their application in modern digital and data communications systems. Written for undergraduate-level courses where students already have some grounding in basic electronic principles and mathematics through the fundamentals of calculus, the book takes readers from conventional analog communications through to more modern digital, optical fiber, microwave, satellite, and cellular/PCS telephone systems. Its later chapters describe the fundamental concepts of terrestrial and satellite microwave-radio communications, including analog terrestrial microwave systems and digital satellite systems, with a dedicated appendix covering the Smith Chart.

Topics commonly covered include:

• Signal analysis and mixing

• Oscillators, phase-locked loops, and frequency synthesizers

• Amplitude modulation transmission and reception

• Single-sideband communications systems

• Angle modulation transmission, reception, and FM stereo

• Digital modulation and digital transmission

• Digital T-carriers and multiplexing

• Metallic cable and optical fiber transmission media

• Antennas, waveguides, and electromagnetic wave propagation

• Telephone systems, cellular telephone concepts, and satellite communications

Key features:

• Comprehensive scope spanning analog fundamentals through advanced digital, optical, and wireless systems

• The last ten chapters also published separately as "Advanced Electronic Communications Systems"

• Strong grounding in fundamentals before moving into modern communications technologies

• Long publication history spanning five editions since 1988

• Written by an author with direct teaching experience at DeVry University

Perfect for:

• Electronics technology and electrical engineering students taking introductory or advanced communications courses

• Students with a basic electronics and calculus background moving into communications specialization

• Students needing coverage spanning analog, digital, optical, and wireless communications in one text

• Faculty teaching a full-scope electronic communications course sequence
