Basic Telecommunications: The Physical Layer

Part of Delmar Learning's new National Center for Telecommunications Technologies Series, this book introduces wireline, wireless, and fiber optic concepts, focusing on physical layer implementation of system hardware. Industry regulations and background on filters, and test equipment is provided. Readers then launch into study of multiplexing and modulation schemes, with opportunities to compare digital and traditional techniques. Presentation is guided by the needs of technicians tasked with evaluating system operation and reconfiguring programmable hardware. DC/AC theory and digital electronics knowledge is assumed.

這本書是 Delmar Learning 公司新推出的國家電信技術中心系列的一部分，介紹了有線、無線和光纖概念，重點關注系統硬體的物理層實現。書中提供了行業規定和有關濾波器和測試設備的背景知識。讀者隨後將深入研究多路復用和調製方案，並有機會比較數字和傳統技術。書中的內容是根據技術人員評估系統運作和重新配置可編程硬體的需求而指導的。假設讀者具備直流/交流理論和數字電子學知識。
