Synopsis

The book discusses receiving signals that most electrical engineers detect and study. The vast majority of signals could never be detected due to random additive signals, known as noise, that distorts them or completely overshadows them. Such examples include an audio signal of the pilot communicating with the ground over the engine noise or a bioengineer listening for a fetus’ heartbeat over the mother’s. The text presents the methods for extracting the desired signals from the noise. Each new development includes examples and exercises that use MATLAB to provide the answer in graphic forms for the reader's comprehension and understanding.

About this title

Review

"Timely and fundamental subject, sparking interest for students and engineers alike. Starts from the basics and builds up the complexity in a logic and very understandable way, so that both beginners and experienced professionals will be able to profit from the book.
The book is very useful as a reference, with an extensive set of digital processing operations and clear MATLAB examples and proposed exercises for all of them. The reader can easily find everything related to one specific topic (eg. Fourier transform)."
― Alexandre Giulietti de Barros, Teledyne Anafocus, Spain
