Pulse Code Modulation Systems Design

A recognized expert in telemetry systems, William N. Waggener has more than 35 years of experience in communication, electro-optical, and recording technology. He is the president and founder of Chestnut Mountain Group, a research and development consulting organization in Sarasota, Florida. Mr. Waggener earned his B.S.E.E. from the Rose Hulman Institute of Technology and his M.E.E. from the University of Florida. He holds ten patents, is the author of Pulse Code Modulation Techniques (1995), has published nearly 40 technical papers, and is a life senior member of the IEEE.
