Digital Signal Processing Using MATLAB

Author: Vinay K Ingl

This supplement to any standard DSP text is one of the first books to successfully integrate the use of MATLAB® in the study of DSP concepts. In this book, MATLAB® is used as a computing tool to explore traditional DSP topics, and solve problems to gain insight. This greatly expands the range and complexity of problems that students can effectively study in the course. Since DSP applications are primarily algorithms implemented on a DSP processor or software, a fair amount of programming is required. Using interactive software such as MATLAB® makes it possible to place more emphasis on learning new and difficult concepts than on programming algorithms. Interesting practical examples are discussed and useful problems are explored. This updated second edition includes new homework problems and revises the scripts in the book, available functions, and m-files to MATLAB® V7.

The primary use of this textbook is as a supplement in junior- or senior-level undergraduate courses on DSP, and assumes familiarity with the fundamentals of MATLAB. Ingle and Proakis (Northeastern University) round out the text with application projects in adaptive filtering and communications. Annotation c. Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
