Features: This book systematically explains coding and information theory from an engineering application perspective, using numerous examples. Main Content: Discrete source and entropy, channels and channel capacity, run-length limited codes, linear block error-correcting codes, cyclic codes, convolutional codes, trellis coded modulation, information theory and cryptography, Shannon coding theorem, etc. While explaining profound theories, the author strives to avoid the traditional theoretical, formal, and argumentative organizational style. Instead, he presents the knowledge of coding and information theory to readers in an unconventional, engaging, and easily understandable manner, closely integrating engineering practice.
