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.

Features

Teaches and applies MATLAB® to make it possible for students to explore more complex DSP problems than are normally taught in undergraduate-level courses.
Provides MATLAB® functions and scripts, enabling students to modify problem values and parameters, and study scripts to gain insight into MATLAB® procedures.
Last two chapters cover applications in DSP with an emphasis on MATLAB®-based projects in adaptive filtering, and digital communications.
Treats the analysis and design of filters and spectrum analyzers in great detail.
This book is an excellent MATLAB® supplement to any traditional DSP text.
