Signals And Systems With Matlab Applications

Signals and Systems Using MATLAB, Third Edition, features a pedagogically rich and accessible approach to what can commonly be a mathematically dry subject. Historical notes and common mistakes combined with applications in controls, communications and signal processing help students understand and appreciate the usefulness of the techniques described in the text. This new edition features more end-of-chapter problems, new content on two-dimensional signal processing, and discussions on the state-of-the-art in signal processing. Introduces both continuous and discrete systems early, then studies each (separately) in-depth Contains an extensive set of worked examples and homework assignments, with applications for controls, communications, and signal processing Begins with a review on all the background math necessary to study the subject Includes MATLAB® applications in every chapter

This text contains a comprehensive discussion of continuous and discrete time signals and systems with many examples from MATLAB--software used to write efficient, compact programs to solve electrical and computer engineering problems of varying complexity. Intended for junior- and senior-level electrical engineering students and for self-study by working professionals, it discusses Laplace transformation and circuit analysis, impulse response, Fourier series, Z transform, and the Discrete Fourier transform and FFT. Solutions to all exercises are included in this revised edition.

This book is primarily intended for junior-level students who take the courses on ‘signals and systems’. It may be useful as a reference text for practicing engineers and scientists who want to acquire some of the concepts required for signal proce- ing. The readers are assumed to know the basics about linear algebra, calculus (on complex numbers, differentiation, and integration), differential equations, Laplace R transform, and MATLAB . Some knowledge about circuit systems will be helpful. Knowledge in signals and systems is crucial to students majoring in Electrical Engineering. The main objective of this book is to make the readers prepared for studying advanced subjects on signal processing, communication, and control by covering from the basic concepts of signals and systems to manual-like introduc- R R tions of how to use the MATLAB and Simulink tools for signal analysis and lter design. The features of this book can be summarized as follows: 1. It not only introduces the four Fourier analysis tools, CTFS (continuous-time Fourier series), CTFT (continuous-time Fourier transform), DFT (discrete-time Fourier transform), and DTFS (discrete-time Fourier series), but also illuminates the relationship among them so that the readers can realize why only the DFT of the four tools is used for practical spectral analysis and why/how it differs from the other ones, and further, think about how to reduce the difference to get better information about the spectral characteristics of signals from the DFT analysis.

Practical Signals Theory with MATLAB Applications is organized around applications, first introducing the actual behavior of specific signals and then using them to motivate the presentation of mathematical concepts. Tervo sequences the presentation of the major transforms by their complexity: first Fourier, then Laplace, and finally the z-transform. The goal is to help students who can’t visualize phenomena from an equation to develop their intuition and learn to analyze signals by inspection. Finally, most examples and problems are designed to use MATLAB, making the presentation more in line with modern engineering practice.

"Provides rigorous treatment of deterministic and random signals"--

Drawing on the author's 25+ years of teaching experience, Signals and Systems: A MATLAB Integrated Approach presents a novel and comprehensive approach to understanding signals and systems theory. Many texts use MATLAB as a computational tool, but Alkin's text employs MATLAB both computationally and pedagogically to provide interactive, visual rein

This text is primarily written for junior and senior undergraduates majoring in electrical and computer engineering. You will need this text if you are a student or working professional seeking to learn and/or review the basics of the Laplace and Z-transforms, the Fast Fourier Transform (FFT), state variables, and the design of analog and digital filters. Contains many real-world examples completely solved in detail and verified with MATLAB computations and Simulink models.

Concisely covers all the important concepts in an easy-to-understand way Gaining a strong sense of signals and systems fundamentals is key for general proficiency in any electronic engineering discipline, and critical for specialists in signal processing, communication, and control. At the same time, there is a pressing need to gain mastery of these concepts quickly, and in a manner that will be immediately applicable in the real word. Simultaneous study of both continuous and discrete signals and systems presents a much easy path to understanding signals and systems analysis. In A Practical Approach to Signals and Systems, Sundararajan details the discrete version first followed by the corresponding continuous version for each topic, as discrete signals and systems are more often used in practice and their concepts are relatively easier to understand. In addition to examples of typical applications of analysis methods, the author gives comprehensive coverage of transform methods, emphasizing practical methods of analysis and physical interpretations of concepts. Gives equal emphasis to theory and practice Presents methods that can be immediately applied Complete treatment of transform methods Expanded coverage of Fourier analysis Self-contained: starts from the basics and discusses applications Visual aids and examples makes the subject easier to understand End-of-chapter exercises, with a extensive solutions manual for instructors MATLAB software for readers to download and practice on their own Presentation slides with book figures and slides with lecture notes A Practical Approach to Signals and Systems is an excellent resource for the electrical engineering student or professional to quickly gain an understanding of signal analysis concepts - concepts which all electrical engineers will eventually encounter no matter what their specialization. For aspiring engineers in signal processing, communication, and control, the topics presented will form a sound foundation to their future study, while allowing them to quickly move on to more advanced topics in the area. Scientists in chemical, mechanical, and biomedical areas will also benefit from this book, as increasing overlap with electrical engineering solutions and applications will require a working understanding of signals. Compact and self contained, A Practical Approach to Signals and Systems be used for courses or self-study, or as a reference book.

Developed as a textbook for the laboratory part of the course Signals and Systems, this book introduces students to theory through analytical examples implemented in Matlab code. Thus every theoretical equation is accompanied by the corresponding code implementation. Instead of using big M-Files or author-written functions with comments, the commands are executed one-by-one at the Matlab command line and the results, dong with comments are given side-by side in two or three column tables. This is very helpful and popular to students in Electrical Engineering, since the nature of this course includes detailed mathematical derivations and demands a strong mathematical background.

This textbook provides engineering students with instruction on processing signals encountered in speech, music, and wireless communications using software or hardware by employing basic mathematical methods. The book starts with an overview of signal processing, introducing readers to the field. It goes on to give instruction in converting continuous time signals into digital signals and discusses various methods to process the digital signals, such as filtering. The author uses MATLAB throughout as a user-friendly software tool to perform various digital signal processing algorithms and to simulate real-time systems. Readers learn how to convert analog signals into digital signals; how to process these signals using software or hardware; and how to write algorithms to perform useful operations on the acquired signals such as filtering, detecting digitally modulated signals, correcting channel distortions, etc. Students are also shown how to convert MATLAB codes into firmware codes. Further, students will be able to apply the basic digital signal processing techniques in their workplace. The book is based on the author's popular online course at University of California, San Diego.
