An Introduction to the Theory of Random Signals and Noise

The "bible" of a whole generation of communications engineers, this 1958 classic has been out of print — and sorely missed — for some years. Its republication will be welcomed alike by recent and long–time members of the profession. It treats the statistical theory underlying the study of signals and noises in communications systems," emphasizing techniques as well–as results.
