Introduction to Digital Signal Processing

by Robert Meddins

Overview

Introduction to Digital Signal Processing covers the basic theory and practice of digital signal processing (DSP) at an introductory level. As with all volumes in the Essential Electronics Series, this book retains the unique formula of minimal mathematics and straightforward explanations. The author has included examples throughout of the standard software design package, MATLAB and screen dumps are used widely throughout to illustrate the text. Ideal for students on degree and diploma level courses in electric and electronic engineering, 'Introduction to Digital Signal Processing' contains numerous worked examples throughout as well as further problems with solutions to enable students to work both independently and in conjunction with their course. - Assumes only minimum knowledge of mathematics and electronics - Concise and written in a straightforward and accessible style - Packed with worked examples, exercises and self-assesment questions

Editorial Reviews

Meddins (information systems, U. of East Anglia) keeps his undergraduate text introductory by focusing on the essentials and avoiding complicated proofs and heavy mathematics wherever possible. For students who want more information or a second opinion, he provides references to more advanced material. He uses the student edition of the software package MATLAB throughout, but defers a tutorial on using it to other books. By the end he hopes students will have a clear understanding of the principles of the digital signal processor and will appreciate its cleverness and flexibility. Annotation c.

"A great strength of the text is the large number of worked examples that the reader can comfortably accomplish given a modest level of prior knowledge... Helpful recap sections are provided for those who feel rusty." —Times Higher Education Supplement
