Channel Codes: Classical and Modern (Hardcover)

Channel coding lies at the heart of digital communication and data storage, and this detailed introduction describes the core theory as well as decoding algorithms, implementation details, and performance analyses. Known for their writing clarity, Professors Ryan and Lin provide the latest information on modern channel codes, including turbo and low-density parity-check (LDPC) codes. They also present detailed coverage of BCH codes, Reed-Solomon codes, convolutional codes, finite geometry codes, and product codes, providing a one-stop resource for both classical and modern coding techniques. Assuming no prior knowledge in the field of channel coding, the opening chapters begin with basic theory to introduce newcomers to the subject. Later chapters then extend to advanced topics such as code ensemble performance analyses and algebraic code design. 250 varied and stimulating end-of-chapter problems are also included to test and enhance learning, making this an essential resource for students and practitioners alike.

通道編碼是數字通信和數據存儲的核心，這本詳細的介紹描述了核心理論以及解碼算法、實現細節和性能分析。以其寫作清晰而聞名，Ryan教授和Lin教授提供了關於現代通道碼的最新信息，包括渦輪碼和低密度奇偶校驗（LDPC）碼。他們還詳細介紹了BCH碼、Reed-Solomon碼、卷積碼、有限幾何碼和產品碼，為傳統和現代編碼技術提供了一站式資源。假設讀者對通道編碼領域沒有先備知識，開頭章節從基本理論開始，介紹新手。後面的章節則擴展到高級主題，如碼集性能分析和代數碼設計。書中還包含250個多樣且刺激的章末問題，用於測試和增強學習，使其成為學生和從業人員的必備資源。
