This supplement to any standard DSP text is one of the first books to successfully integrate the use of MATLABÂR in the study of DSP concepts. In this book, MATLABÂR 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 MATLABÂR 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 printing revises the scripts in the book, available functions, and m-files (available for downloading from the Brooks/Cole Bookware Companion Resource Series? Center Web site) to MATLABÂR V5 (created with 5.3).
