About This Item
Octavo, 9-3/8 inches high by 6-1/8 inches wide. Light blue cloth titled in gilt within a black rectangle on the spine. 363 pages, with a frontispiece illustration of a "Portable microwave transmitting and receiving installation" and several diagrams throughout. FIRST EDITION. An excellent bright near-fine copy in a very attractive unclipped ($8.75) dustwrapper displaying slight wear on the cover hinges. Classic comprehensive text presents detailed topics dealing with the history and fundamentals of modulation theory, including coverage of types of modulation; sampling principle; quantization, code transmission, and multiplexing; speed of signaling and channel capacity; reduction of signal power through the use of redundant codes; amplitude modulators and demodulators; amplitude-modulation systems; frequency modulation; noise and interference in FM systems; pulse-amplitude modulation; pulse-position modulation; pulse-code modulation; etc. Text stems from a revision of material used for three successive years in the Communications Development Training Program of the Bell Telephone Laboratories.
