Performance analysis of communications networks and systems
It consists of three parts. Part one is a review of probability theory. Part two covers the classical theory of stochastic processes (Poisson, renewal, Markov, and queuing theory), which are considered to be the basic building blocks for performance evaluation studies. Part three focuses on the relatively new field of the physics of networks..
Channel coding in communication Networks: From theory to Turbo codes
Using information theory and fundamental theorems on source and channel coding, this book describes the basics of channel coding and advanced coding techniques known as turbo codes. A discussion of lock codes and convolutional codes, including input- and output-decoding algorithms and recursive-systematic convolutional codes, leads into coverage of trellis-coded modulations, which have primary applications in high-spectral efficiency transmissions. The book further distinguishes convolutional-turbo codes from block-turbo codes and presents coding and decoding principles for each family, concluding with the implementation of turbo codes in circuits..
