Closed circuit television (CCTV) is experiencing a leap in technology using digital techniques and the Internet. The new edition of this high-level professional reference retains the particulars that made the first edition a success, including the details of CCD cameras, lenses, coaxial cables, fiber-optics, and system design, but it is...

As a cellular standard evolves, there are many variables that must be optimized. A few of these variables are directly related to higher throughput, increased user capacity, and in general improved system performance. The optimization techniques have involved higherorder modulation, improved multiple access (in both time and frequency), more...
