This hands-on, laboratory driven textbook helps readers understand principles of digital signal processing (DSP) and basics of software-based digital communication, particularly software-defined networks (SDN) and software-defined radio (SDR). In the book only the most important concepts are presented. Each book chapter is an introduction to computer laboratory and is accompanied by complete laboratory exercises and ready-to-go Matlab programs with figures and comments (available at the book webpage and running also in GNU Octave 5.2 with free software packages), showing all or most details of relevant algorithms. Students are tasked to understand programs, modify them, and apply presented concepts to recorded real RF signal or simulated received signals, with modelled transmission condition and hardware imperfections. Teaching is done by showing examples and their modifications to different real-world telecommunication-like applications. The book consists of three parts: introduction to DSP (spectral analysis and digital filtering), introduction to DSP advanced topics (multi-rate, adaptive, model-based and multimedia - speech, audio, video - signal analysis and processing) and introduction to software-defined modern telecommunication systems (SDR technology, analog and digital modulations, single- and multi-carrier systems, channel estimation and correction as well as synchronization issues).Many real signals are processed in the book, in the first part – mainly speech and audio, while in the second part – mainly RF recordings taken from RTL-SDR USB stick and ADALM-PLUTO module, for example captured IQ data of VOR avionics signal, classical FM radio with RDS, digital DAB/DAB+ radio and 4G-LTE digital telephony. Additionally, modelling and simulation of some transmission scenarios are tested in software in the book, in particular TETRA, ADSL and 5G signals.​Provides an introduction to digital signal processing and software-based digital communication;Presents a transition from digital signal processing to software-defined telecommunication;Features a suite of pedagogical materials including a laboratory test-bed and computer exercises/experiments​​.

The textbook covers the main aspects of Edge Computing, from a thorough look at the technology to the standards and industry associations working in the field. The book is conceived as a textbook for graduate students but also functions as a working guide for developers, engineers, and researchers. The book aims not only at providing a comprehensive technology and standard reference overview for students, but also useful research insights and practical exercises for edge software developers and investigators in the area (and for students looking to apply their skills). A particular emphasis is given Multi-access Edge Computing (MEC) as defined in European Telecommunications Standards Institute (ETSI), in relationship with other standard organizations like 3GPP, thus in alignment with the recent industry efforts to produce harmonized standards for edge computing leveraging both ETSI ISG MEC and 3GPP specifications. Practical examples of Edge Computing implementation from industry groups, associations, companies and edge developers, complete the book and make it useful for students entering the field. The book includes exercises, examples, and quizzes throughout.

The book provides a deep analysis of the properties of individual cascades of RF receivers, their design implementation, optimization of characteristics to achieve the highest transfer coefficient and minimum introduced distortions. Particular attention is paid to the characteristics of the preselector, which determines the sensitivity of the receiver, selects the operating frequency band and suppresses side channels. Depending on the range of operating frequencies, the bandwidth of the received signal and the selected structural scheme of the receiver, the preselector can be tunable or with a fixed setting of selective devices. Its component part can be a low-noise amplifier, the AE mode of which is selected based on the condition of the minimum noise factor and achieving the greatest gain. The radio path of modern receivers of analog and digital signals and the type of the selected structural implementation always includes a frequency converter of the useful signal to the range of intermediate frequencies or modulation frequencies (Base Band). It is described how the use of orthogonal modulation methods in digital systems allowed to implement optimal signal reception, when the processing of received signals is performed by correlation methods, and the decision on the received information bit is made on the basis of the analysis of a group of symbols (by the method of sequential decoding). It is shown how this allowed to organize the transmission of information flows to a specific subscriber of the cell, which together with the use of MIMO technology increased the SNR at the receiver input.• Provides a comprehensive understanding of the structure of individual radio path cascades, methods of their optimization under the influence of various interferences and parasitic feedback in AE.• Allows students to not only to learn and to assimilate the applied theoretical issues, but to transfer to independent problem solutions.• Includes a full suite of classroom materials including exercises, Q&A, and examples.
