Customer Reviews

For mathematicians only

Deep mathematicians concepts on Spread Spectrum technology. Even when i have only reviewed the first chapter deeply and the rest not too much, i got the impression it's for advanced level students. All my doubts are getting clear, and much knlowedge is still to come. Besides, it's Andrew Viterbi, one of the most important person besides CDMA technology.

principles of spread spectrum communication

Perhaps not the best book for a beginner in CDMA, but is a very good book if you have some background in CDMA and are interested in finding out the reasons why certain things are done in the IS-95 or other CDMA standards, and the analysis/performance of the CDMA system. I liked the book because it is to the point which is nice (of course, assuming you have prior knowledge about digital communications and are familiar with CDMA). But the material covered in the book may be a little daunting to a beginner in CDMA.

Excellent reading. Well structured and detail oriented.

This book does a wonderful job in gradually building on the important aspects of spread spectrum technology. I liked the structure of the book more than anything else. It gradually explains important principles of CDMA technology, chapter by chapter. This book stands out from others in that the author had taken a very systematic approach in explaining each topic. This book covers all aspects of spread spectrum technology, and is good for people who are new to this field, too. I'd just suggest that readers do not get intimidated by the numerous mathematical equations present in this book. These equations merely help to explain the mathematical side of timing, sequence generation, modulation and demodulation, cell interferences, etc. Definitely not a bed-time reading book, but for a more serious reader who wants to learn about CDMA. One last word about the author...Andy Viterbi is a pioneer of this technology and commensurate with his reputation, he has done an excellent work on this text.
