Wireless Communication Bibliography Text Books on Wireless Communications |
E. Lee and D. Messerschmitt | Digital Communications, | Kluwer Academic Publishers | 1988 second edition 1993. | A well-known reference work, used in graduate courses at many universities. Its scope is very broad |
J.G. Proakis | "Digital Communications" | McGraw Hill | 1983, 1989 | (cover image) This frequently cited book appears to be one of the standard texts on modern digital transmission. Its scope is much broader than transmission over radio channels. It contains one chapter on Digital Transmission over Fading Multipath Channels and one on Spread Spectrum Signals. Its coverage of channel modelling is not so deep. |

W. C. Jakes, Jr., Ed., | "Microwave Mobile Communications", | John Wiley and Sons, New York | 1974 | For a long time this was about the only in-depth book on mobile communications. Many of the earlier journal papers on mobile communications refer to this book. Its contents have formed the basis for many newer books on wireless. A new edition appeared in 1994. |
