Coded Modulation with Binary Codes: Capacity and Finite Blocklength

This book studies the finite blocklength measures for coded modulation schemes. Such measures include the error exponent and the channel dispersion, as means to evaluate the optimal error probability and communication rate for finite block lengths. The results herein allow the comparison with general non-binary coding schemes, and enable the design and optimization of new state-of-the-art communication schemes. This book is essential reading for all researchers and students working at the forefront of wireless communication research.
