Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is written as a text for a course aimed at advanced undergraduates. Chapters cover the codes and decoding methods that are currently of most interest in research, development, and application. They give a relatively brief presentation of the essential results, emphasizing the interrelations between different methods and proofs of all important results. A sequence of problems at the end of each chapter serves to review the results and give the student an appreciation of the concepts.
