Synopsis

For junior-level courses in Continuous-Time and Discrete-Time Systems and Signals, and Using MATLAB in Systems and Signals, in electrical, computer, and telecommunications engineering technology programs. Students must be comfortable with calculus.

This text provides a comprehensive review of the foundations of continuous-time systems, and introduces, with equal emphasis, the “new circuit theory” of discrete-time systems. It looks at the concepts and analysis tools associated with signal spectra―focusing on periodic signals and the Discrete Fourier Transform, and makes students aware of the capabilities of MATLAB. Topics include analysis techniques, frequency response, standard filters, spectral analysis, discrete-time signals and systems, IRR and FIR filter designs, and sampling strategies.

About this title

From the Back Cover

This innovative book for technology students presents both continuous and discrete domains under one cover. It reviews the foundations of continuous-time systems and introduces the concepts and analysis tools associated with signal spectra, with emphasis on periodic signals and the Discrete Fourier Transform. Topics include:

• Analysis techniques
• Frequency response
• Standard filters
• Spectral analysis
• Discrete-time signals and systems
• IRR and FIR filter designs
• Sampling strategies

New to this edition are sections on the topics of spectral estimation, convolution, and correlation. A chapter has been added to cover applications of the Laplace and z transforms; the impulse invariance approach to converting from continuous-time to discrete-time systems is discussed. The book also contains an introduction to and lessons in MATLAB®.
