Software and hardware implementation techniques for digital communications-related algorithms

There are essentially three areas addressed in the body of this thesis. (a) The first is a theoretical investigation into the design and development of a practically realizable implementation of a maximum-likelihood detection process to deal with digital data transmission over HF radio links. These...
