1: I dunno, sorry. 2: Asking that question is like asking "What is the best book for using a Stanley Hammer for frame carpentry?" Matlab is just a tool. It's a nice tool, but it is nothing more than a tool. Moreover, it is not the only tool for the job -- Scilab and Octave are both good tools to use that function very similar to Matlab, and tools like Mathematica, MathCad. Not to mention C, or even Fortran if you're into the classics. Just as you need to know a lot more to do frame carpentry than how to pound a nail, you need to know a lot more about signal processing and comms than how to type into Matlab. -- www.wescottdesign.com

Now that's just asking to start a fight. :-) Steve

You mean saying it's just a tool, or saying it's nice? Or have I asked for two fights? -- www.wescottdesign.com

Doesn't Cal Tech offer a degree in Matlab? Jerry -- Engineering is the art of making what you want from things you can get. ¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯

http://www.amazon.com/OFDM-Wireless-LANs-Theoretical-Practical/dp/0672321572 is a good starting point Mark

oh and this too http://www.skydsp.com/publications/4thyrthesis/index.htm#Table%20of%20Contents
don't be bothered Sami, you can get very good answers here, but the price
to pay is to live with the arrogance of few frustrated "genius".

1. As an introduction to OFDM systems I suggest to have a look at the very
well written books "Wireless Communications", one written by A. Goldsmith,
and the other written by A. F. Molisch. A more in depth treatment is given
in "Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing for Wireless Communications"
by Ye (Geoffrey) Li, Gordon L. Stuber. I also like "OFDM Baseband Receiver
Design for Wireless Communications" by Tzi-Dar Chiueh and Pei-Yun Tsai 

2. Have a look at "Contemporary Communication Systems using Matlab", by 
Proakis and Salehi.

Ordinarily. Unless I'm misreading the profile in Google groups, this seems to be the guy that tried to buy a degree a few weeks ago (different name, same email).
