Computer Explorations in Signals and Systems Using MATLAB

Computer Explorations in Signals and Systems Using MATLAB

• NEW - Now based on the latest release of MATLAB Version 12.
• NEW - Real-world applications and actual data—Including speech processing, financial time series analysis, stabilization of mechanical systems with feedback, communication systems (AM, FM, FDMA, TDMA, SSB, asynchronous demodulation), electrical circuits, FIR and IIR Filter design (frequency sampling, least squares, Butterworth, Parks-McCellan), automobile suspension, image processing, and telephony. Engages the student with concrete problems that reinforce intuition and critical thinking.
• Engages the student with concrete problems that reinforce intuition and critical thinking.
• A large number of problems (about 750) offer flexibility for the instructor. Allows the book to be used every semester without re-using problems.
• Allows the book to be used every semester without re-using problems.
• Problems are divided into Basic, Intermediate, and Advanced levels. Ensures mastery of the fundamental tools before exposure to applications and advanced concepts.
