Can anyone suggest a good book for data communication(information transmission, modulation, noise)?

I am studying about data communication as it is in my varsity course. But I am finding the subject very difficult. So I need a good book from where I can understand easily. Please suggest me one or some.
Answer:

Since you mentioned modulation and noise, I assume you're talking about wireless digital communication. To begin with, you will need to learn about probabilities and random process, digital signal processing and information theory. These are the "languages" used to describe a wireless communication system. There're of course many good textbooks covering these topics. For beginners or self-learners, often time I recommend to start with Schaum's outline series as follows. I read them some times to recap as well. http://www.amazon.com/Schaums-Outline-Probability-Second-Edition-ebook/dp/B00ARUHR8Q/ref=pd_sim_kstore_1?ie=UTF8&refRID=0E3KY9J2QENABB628YGF http://www.amazon.com/Schaums-Outline-Probability-Variables-Processes-ebook/dp/B00HSO0XAS/ref=tmm_kin_title_0?_encoding=UTF8&sr=8-6&qid=1430460889 http://www.amazon.com/Schaums-Outline-Digital-Signal-Processing/dp/0071635092/ref=sr_1_1?s=books&ie=UTF8&qid=1430461269&sr=1-1&keywords=digital+signal+processing+schaum After you're familiar with the fundamentals, you can start to read Prof. Skylar's digital communication which covers various aspects. http://www.amazon.com/Digital-Communications-Fundamentals-Applications-2nd/dp/0130847887/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1430461162&sr=8-1&keywords=skylar+digital+communication
