About this Item

Neuware - With a strong emphasis on solving problems and exploring concepts, this guidebook delivers an accessible yet comprehensive introduction to continuous-time and discrete-time signals and systems. Discusses how to download signals (time series) from the Web and analyze the data. Includes details on common types of digital filters, such as moving average and exponential moving average filters, with applications to filtering data downloaded from the Web. Addresses signal analysis using the DFT to extract the dominant cyclic components of a signal. Addresses the issue of noise, which often arises in engineering, business, finance, and other fields. For those interested in learning more about signals and systems.

About this title

Synopsis

For a one-quarter or one-semster course on Signals and Systems.

 

This new edition delivers an accessible yet comprehensive analytical introduction to continuous-time and discrete-time signals and systems. It also incorporates a strong emphasis on solving problems and exploring concepts, using demos, downloaded data, and MATLAB^â to demonstrate solutions for a wide range of problems in engineering and other fields such as financial data analysis. Its flexible structure adapts easily for courses taught by semester or by quarter.

From the Back Cover

The book contains an introductory, yet comprehensive, treatment of continuous time and discrete-time signal and systems with demos on the Web and MATLAB examples integrated throughout the text. The second edition contains modifications of the material in the first edition to improve the presentation, additional illustrative examples and homework problems, a new chapter on communication systems, and the use of numerous on-line demos that illustrate the concepts and techniques presented in the book. The demos are available at the Web site (http://users.ece.gatech.edu/~bonnie/book) that accompanies this text. The chapter on communications covers both analog and digital modulation with an emphasis on the digital case, including phase-shift keying, frequency-shift keying, quadrature amplitude modulation, and on-off keying.
