Signals and Systems: A Primer with MATLAB®

by Matthew N. O. Sadiku, Warsame Hassan Ali

Overview

Signals and Systems: A Primer with MATLAB provides clear, interesting, and easy-to-understand coverage of continuous-time and discrete-time signals and systems. Each chapter opens with a historical profile or career talk, followed by an introduction that states the chapter objectives and links the chapter to the previous ones. All principles are pr

Editorial Reviews

"This book follows an approach based on the right balance between theory and practice, which is recommended to catch the attention of students who might be discouraged at first with the subject if they do not foresee its possible applications. The book also stablishes links between the subject and related issues from other disciplines, which work out as an interesting introduction to each chapter. Most importantly, even though the title suggests that MATLAB® will have the largest share in the material, each chapter makes sure that the theoretical background is well known before turning to hands-on MATLAB examples. This is not just a recipe book; it is a well-balanced textbook."
—Alexandre Giulietti, Vision Systems Engineer, e2v, Seville, Spain

"Actually, the book includes what I exactly cover in a one-semester signals and systems course (EM 301). ... It also includes MATLAB sections, ... [which are] good and helpful for students. ... I [appreciate] ... its simplicity in describing complex concepts."
—Ozgul Salor, Gazi University, Ankara, Turkey
