<br/><br/> "This book sets out to provide a clear description of the essentials of the topic, with comprehensive and up-to-date coverage of the most useful codes and their decoding algorithms. The book has a practical engineering and information technology emphasis, but includes relevant background materials and fundamental theoretical aspects"--Preface (p. [xiii]) 
<br/><br/> "Error-control coding is a complex, novel and unfamiliar area, not yet widely understood and appreciated. This book sets out to provide a clear description of the essentials of the subject, with comprehensive and up-to-date coverage of the most useful codes and their decoding algorithms. A practical engineering and information technology emphasis, as well as relevant background material and fundamental theoretical aspects, provides an in-depth guide to the essentials of error-control coding." "Offering a complete overview of error-control coding, this book is an indispensable resource for students, engineers and researchers in the areas of telecommunications engineering, communication networks, electronic engineering, computer science, information systems and technology, digital signal processing and applied mathematics."--BOOK JACKET.
