Viterbi on the laws of nature and society that ultimately govern wireless networks ~ bandwidth-efficient modulations with applications to today's Space program Based on research and results obtained at the California Institute of Technology's Jet Propulsion Laboratory, this timely book defines, describes, and then delineates the performance (power and bandwidth) of digital communication systems that incorporate a wide variety of bandwidth-efficient modulations appropriate for the design and implementation of space communications systems. The author compares the performance of these systems in the presence of a number of practical (non-ideal) transmitter and receiver characteristics such as modulator and phase imbalance, imperfect carrier synchronization, and transmitter nonlinearity. Although the material focuses on the deep space applications developed at the Jet Propulsion Laboratory, the presentation is sufficiently broad as to be applicable to a host of other applications dealing with RF communications. An important contribution to the scientific literature, Bandwidth-Efficient Digital Modulation with Application to Deep Space Communications * was commissioned by the JPL Deep Space Communications and Navigation System Center of Excellence * highlights many NASA-funded technical contributions pertaining to deep space communications systems * is a part of the prestigious Deep Space Communications and Navigation Series The Deep Space Communications and Navigation Series is authored by scientists and engineers with extensive experience in astronautics, communications, and related fields.

Tohru Katayama sets out an in-depth introduction to subspace methods for system identification in discrete-time linear systems thoroughly augmented with advanced and novel results. The text is structured into three parts. First, the mathematical preliminaries are dealt with: numerical linear algebra; system theory; stochastic processes; and Kalman filtering. The second part explains realization theory, particularly that based on the decomposition of Hankel matrices, as it is applied to subspace identification methods. Two stochastic realization results are included, one based on spectral factorization and Riccati equations, the other on canonical correlation analysis (CCA) for stationary processes. Part III uses the development of stochastic realization results, in the presence of exogenous inputs, to demonstrate the closed-loop application of subspace identification methods CCA and ORT (based on orthogonal decomposition). The addition of tutorial problems with solutions and Matlab® programs which demonstrate various aspects of the methods propounded to introductory and research material makes Subspace Methods for System Identification not only an excellent reference for researchers but also a very useful text for tutors and graduate students involved with courses in control and signal processing. The book can be used for self-study and will be of much interest to the applied scientist or engineer wishing to use advanced methods in modeling and identification of complex systems ~ Closed Circuit Television CCTV Installation, Maintenance and Operation Second Edition Author: Joe Cieszynski Summary Closed Circuit Television (CCTV) surveillance is one of the fastest growing areas in the security industry.
