Information and Coding Theory

Ms.R.Saranya
Book Preface

This book seeks to bridge the gap between theoretical foundations and practical
implementations, offering readers a thorough grounding in both classical and
contemporary aspects of the discipline. Throughout the chapters, we will delve into
the core principles of information theory, including entropy, source coding, and
channel capacity. We will explore various coding techniques, from traditional error
detection and correction methods to advanced topics such as turbo codes, low-
density parity-check (LDPC) codes, and the emerging field of quantum coding. Each
chapter is designed to build on the previous one, progressively guiding the reader
from fundamental concepts to more complex theories and applications.

One of the distinguishing features of this book is its emphasis on practical


applications. Real-world examples and case studies are integrated throughout to
illustrate how theoretical concepts are applied in modern communication systems,
data storage technologies, and cryptographic protocols. This book is intended for a
diverse audience, including undergraduate and graduate students in electrical
engineering, computer science, and related fields, as well as professionals and
researchers seeking a deeper understanding of information and coding theory. Each
chapter is supplemented with exercises and problems to reinforce learning and
encourage further exploration of the topics covered.

We would like to express our gratitude to the many colleagues, students, and
reviewers who contributed to the development of this book. Their invaluable
feedback and support have helped shape the content and structure, ensuring that it
meets the highest standards of clarity and rigor. As you embark on this journey
through the fascinating world of information and coding theory, we hope that this
book will serve as a valuable resource, sparking curiosity and inspiring further study
and innovation in this ever-evolving field.

Warm Regards
