Synopsis

The aim of this book is to introduce the general area of Digital Signal Processing from a practical point of view with a working minimum of mathematics. The emphasis is placed on the practical applications of DSP: implementation issues, tricks and pitfalls. Intuitive explanations and appropriate examples are used to develop a fundamental understanding of DSP theory, laying a firm foundation for the reader to pursue the matter further. The reader will develop a clear understanding of DSP technology in a variety of fields from process control to communications.

About this title

About the Author

Edmund Lai has a particular affinity for Digital Signal Processing (DSP) as a result of his lecturing activities and interest in this area at Edith Cowan University and the University of Western Australia. He has consulted widely to private industry and used his expertise in DSP algorithms to affect some novel solutions for various mineral processing industry problems. He currently is based in Singapore lecturing and consulting in digital signal processing.

From the Back Cover

* Covers the use of DSP in different engineering sectors, from communications to process control
* Ideal for a wide audience wanting to take advantage of the strong movement towards digital signal processing techniques in the engineering world
* Includes numerous practical exercises and diagrams covering many of the fundamental aspects of digital signal processing

There are a great number of DSP (digital signal processing) books on the market but few books that cover the practical skills and know-how needed by engineers working with DSP-based systems. With the tremendous variety of affordable software and hardware packages on the market today (unlike ten years ago) engineers can easily apply DSP technology to their applications.
