Modern Digital and Analog Communication Systems
Modern Digital and Analog Communication Systems is ideal for the first communication systems course for electrical and computer engineers; it offers its readers a consistently superb pedagogical style and explains complex subjects and concepts clearly, using both mathematics and heuristics.
This new edition seamlessly incorporates many new technological advances in Lathi's trademark style of user-friendliness and high readability. The text begins by introducing students to a panoramic view of communication systems, explaining important concepts of communication theory in a heuristic
way. Only after a solid introduction to basic communication systems is analysis of communication systems requiring probability and random processes presented. The authors use real world examples to capture the students' attention and enable them to easily relate the course materials with their daily
experience of communication tools. The text features easy-to-understand examples and MatLab exercises to clarify mathematical results and proofs. Among the newly introduced topics are spread spectrum communications and orthogonal frequency devision multiplexing (OFDM), error connection coding,
soft-decoding, turbo codes and low density parity check (LDPC) codes. To better motivate various topics, the text provides many related applications including the latest wire-line (DSL) services, cellular systems, and the wireless local area networks (LANs). This unique text is highly informative,
interactive, and accessible to beginning students as well as seasoned practitioners.

I just started reading and the book is really good. It's really hard to find a book on telecommunication having a comprehensive language which I have been through. The book is good as I already said and I recommend it for the beginner who doesn't have any background in telecommunication (just like mine).

This is somewhat difficult for beginners in the field, like me! However, I liked (and found very helpful) the many illustrative diagrams and the verbose/lengthy writing style.

While it's never really fun to read a textbook, Lathi interjects just enough quirkiness to make his books more enjoyable. Better than that, his writing is very clear. This a good book for an introduction to communications systems.
