Editorial Reviews

This text for graduate students, engineers, and researchers covers the families of prime codes and their potential applications to modern optical and wireless communication systems and networks. Yang (electrical engineering, National Chung-Hsing U., Taiwan) and Kwong (engineering, Hofstra U.) begin with a discussion of essential mathematical concepts such as Galois fields and error probabilities. Next, they describe the applications of prime codes to code-division- multiple-access (CDMA) optical networks. Finally, the wireless applications of prime codes are examined. Annotation c.
