Features: - Presents many computer-based problems that can be done in conjunction with a course in DSP theory.
- Projects relate to practical systems and implementations so the reader can learn and understand how DSP is applied.
- Includes projects and exercises, which make full use of the power of MATLAB v5 to explore conceptual, analytical, and computational issues in digital signal processing.
- Many projects provide hints to introduce pitfalls, limitations and tricks for getting the most out of MATLAB v5.
- Discusses both the power and limitations of MATLAB v5 functions and regularly explores the issue of using built-in functions versus developing code to solve problems.
- Exercises consistently reinforce important problem solving behaviors, such as verifying results, experimenting with parameters as a means of building understanding and intuition, exploring the realism of formulations, comparing theoretical and numerical or measured results, and developing predictions and then comparing them to actual results.
Reader Reviews
This was probably written to be a lab manual for a class. I bought it as a professional to polish up on my DSP. It contains "hands on" exercises in Matlab to demonstrate DSP principles. My two main gripes are the same with this book as most other engineering books and are as follows: (1) it is not written to it's intended audience - the student. It is written for the professor (ie the authors colleagues) and (2) it contains no solutions (as a previous reviewer stated). I would also like to point out that Matlab 5 is "old" now and some of the functions used in this book have been renamed in the later version of Matlab. DO NOT WASTE YOUR MONEY ON THIS BOOK.
