Codes Curves and Signals: Common Threads in Communications is a collection of seventeen
contributions from leading researchers in communications. The book provides a representative
cross-section of cutting edge contemporary research in the fields of algebraic curves and the
associated decoding algorithms the use of signal processing techniques in coding theory and
the application of information-theoretic methods in communications and signal processing. The
book is organized into three parts: Curves and Codes Codes and Signals and Signals and
Information. Codes Curves and Signals: Common Threads in Communications is a tribute to the
broad and profound influence of Richard E. Blahut on the fields of algebraic coding
information theory and digital signal processing. All the contributors have individually and
collectively dedicated their work to R. E. Blahut. Codes Curves and Signals: Common Threads
in Communications is an excellent reference for researchers and professionals.
