Signal Coding and Processing

Signal coding and signal processing are complex and critical elements of communications systems in broadcasting, satellite, and magnetic recording fields among others. Because both signal coding and processing are often found within a single electronic system (especially large communications systems), this book uniquely combines an introduction to both of these areas and provides an uncluttered theoretical treatment of optical coding and processing algorithms, together with design information for practical systems. The author examines Pulse Code Modulation fundamentals, surveys modern data compression techniques, introduces block and convolutional error control codes, and discusses modern transmission coding techniques. Complete with problems and solutions, and containing over 230 diagrams, this textbook will be invaluable to third- and fourth-year undergraduates in electronic, electrical, or communication engineering. It will also act as a useful reference for anyone working in this technologically important field.

Traditions of the Classical Guitar

First published in 1980, 'Traditions of the Classical Guitar' has been described as the first book to examine in detail the many traditions of one of today's most popular instruments. With its central focus on Andres Segovia's pioneering work in establishing the guitar as an international concert instrument, it goes on to examine in detail its subsequent developments with reference to great artists such as Bream, Williams, Diaz and Yepes. 'Traditions of the Classical Guitar' continues to be a classic of twentieth-century guitar scholarship, offering a challenging assessment to perceptions of the guitar's progress throughout the ages. It is also a timely reminder of the glorious years of Segovia's concert career between 1909 and 1987; Segovia himself said of the work: 'Graham Wade has shown his love for the guitar from the first page to the last; true love and understanding'.
