Communications Mathematics Tutorials Website
« on: May 27, 2019, 03:55:30 PM »

A fantastic resource for serious, thorough tutorials about communications theory and practice in analog and digital - waveforms, signal processing and coding/decoding. It has a particularly good explanation of trellis coded modulation, lattices and cosets.

Tutorials on Digital Communications Engineering

The author has done a huge amount of work. Valuable references too.

Thank you for the link. It now looks as if some reading is required, by me.  :)

Thanks from me too for the link.  Anything that bridges the (rather large) gap between abstract mathematics and concrete application (to "broadband") is really valuable.
Can you recommend anything else of that kind?

This article is superbly done and very amusing. Someone put a vast amount of work into it: An Interactive Guide To The Fourier Transform

I will dig around a bit for material for other topics. Anyone have any specific questions ideas for areas that they would like illuminated?

Not specifically!  What I found delightful about your link is that there are various areas of pure mathematics, like analysis of analogue signals,
and information theory, of discrete codes transmitted over sampled noisy channels, that are bridged to a unforgiving real-world application.
Beauty and The Beast.  It can be difficult to cross the bridge in either direction.

A book that I once found very helpful when writing signal processing code was by Ronald N. Bracewell: "The Fourier Transform and
its Applications" (2nd edition 1978).  https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ronald_N._Bracewell.
 
A fascinating (and colourful) bridge-straddling character is Oliver Heaviside  https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oliver_Heaviside.
