angle modulation mathworld

what is meant by the following terms "some refrences may be suggested":
1- matched filters
2- AWGN
3- linear modulation
4- hermitian transpose "for matrices"
5- kronecker product
6- kronecker delta
thank u

1. Matched filters :

used in receivers to extract out the signal content.
**broken link removed**

2. AWGN

It stands for additive white gaussian noise. This is the standard model
for noise for many communication channels.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/AWGN

3. Linear Modulation

This a modulation technique. The digital data is linearly encoded into the amplitude of the signal.

4. Hermitian Transpose

This is also called conjugate transpose.
so given a matrix A.

to compute the Hermitian transpose of A,
you can take its transpose, and then conjugate all of its elements.

5. Kronecker Product

6. Kronecker Delta

Hope that helps.

1)amplitude modulation is linear modulation and angle modulation falls under non linear modulation...
2)AWGN...additive white gausian noise...
noise will add with signal...it will have gaussion distribution....its value will a constant one for all frequencies..for that it is called with name tag "white"

The first 3 topics can be found in any communications text.The 4th can be found in any math text.
The last two I don't know
