Synchronization in Digital Communications, Volume 1: Phase-, Frequency-Locked Loops, and Amplitude Control

The first accessible, comprehensive treatment of synchronization in digital communications. This two-volume work presents a bottom-up approach—emphasis is on applications rather than mathematics. The first volume presents the basics of phase, frequency and amplitude control, then covers more advanced topics such as the nonlinear theory of synchronizers. The second volume covers symbol/suppressed carrier synchronizers. Chapters are relatively self-contained for ease of reference.
