The "human" aspect, therefore, is as important as technologically advanced media systems in understanding communication technology. The flagship book in the Series in Communication Technology & Society, Communication Technology introduces the history and uses of the new technologies and examines basic issues posed by interactive media in areas that affect intellectual, organization, and social life. Author and series co-editor Everett M. Rogers defines the field of communication technology with its major implications for researchers, students, and practitioners in an age of ever more advanced information exchange.
Download or read book Contemporary Politics Communication and the Impact on Democracy written by Palau-Sampio, Dolors and published by IGI Global. This book was released on 2021-11-12 with total page 420 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The loss of credibility of traditional media and democratic institutions points to the important challenges for the democratic system. Social networks have allowed new political and social actors to disseminate their messages, which has raised diversity. However, it has also lowered the standards for the circulation of messages and has increased disinformation and hate speech. Contemporary Politics, Communication, and the Impact on Democracy addresses communication and politics and the impact on democracy. This book offers a valuable contribution regarding the challenges and threats faced by traditional and stable democracies while disinformation, polarization, and populism have a main role in the present hybrid communicative scenario. Covering topics such as digital authoritarianism, emotional and rational frames, and political conflict on social media, this is an essential resource for political scientists, communication specialists, analysts, policymakers, politicians, critical media scholars, graduate students, professors, researchers, and academicians.
Download or read book The Handbook of Applied Communication Research written by H. Dan O'Hair and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2020-04-24 with total page 1043 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An authoritative survey of different contexts, methodologies, and theories of applied communication The field of Applied Communication Research (ACR) has made substantial progress over the past five decades in studying communication problems, and in making contributions to help solve them. Changes in society, human relationships, climate and the environment, and digital media have presented myriad contexts in which to apply communication theory. The Handbook of Applied Communication Research addresses a wide array of contemporary communication issues, their research implications in various contexts, and the challenges and opportunities for using communication to manage problems. This innovative work brings together the diverse perspectives of a team of notable international scholars from across disciplines. The Handbook of Applied Communication Research includes discussion and analysis spread across two comprehensive volumes. Volume one introduces ACR, explores what is possible in the field, and examines theoretical perspectives, organizational communication, risk and crisis communication, and media, data, design, and technology. The second volume focuses on real-world communication topics such as health and education communication, legal, ethical, and policy issues, and volunteerism, social justice, and communication activism. Each chapter addresses a specific issue or concern, and discusses the choices faced by participants in the communication process. This important contribution to communication research: Explores how various communication contexts are best approached Addresses balancing scientific findings with social and cultural issues Discusses how and to what extent media can mitigate the effects of adverse events Features original findings from ongoing research programs and original communication models and frameworks Presents the best available research and insights on where current research and best practices should move in the future A major addition to the body of knowledge in the field, The Handbook of Applied Communication Research is an invaluable work for advanced undergraduate students, graduate students, and scholars.

Download or read book Digital Signal Processing in Modern Communication Systems Edition 2 written by Andreas Schwarzinger and published by Andreas Schwarzinger. This book was released on 2022-01-13 with total page 638 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The second edition of Digital Signal Processing in Modern Communication Systems (www.signal-processing.net) takes you on a journey that starts with basic DSP principles and ends with a treatment of modern wireless modems such as single-tone and OFDM transceivers which are found in GSM, WLAN, LTE and 5G technologies. Throughout this journey, we will cover signal processing topics that are applicable not just to the field of communications but to many engineering disciplines. This text steps outside the often dry mathematical presentation of more traditional DSP books and provides a more intuitive approach to this fascinating topic. Some of this book's uniqueness can be summarized as follows: - An intuitive approach to the topic of digital signal processing. - Working in-book MatLab examples supporting all important concepts. - A large scope covering basic concepts (correlation, convolution, DFT, FIR filters ...) as well as advanced topics (optimization, adaptive signal processing, equalization, OFDM, MIMO ... ). - MatLab modeling of analog/RF effects (multipath channel, thermal noise, phase noise, IQ imbalances, DC and frequency offsets) that must be addressed and solved in modern modem design. - Real world topics that go beyond the ordinary communication textbooks such as signal synchronization, modem rate management, and fixed-point effects. All in all, this book is a must-have for students and practicing engineers who want to build upon the principles of Digital Signal Processing, enrich their understanding with advanced topics, and then apply that knowledge to the design of modern wireless modems.
