Analog & Digital Signal Proces

Brings the entire area of signal processing within the scope of modern undergraduate curricula Discusses topics such as spectral analysis of continuous and discrete signals (deterministic and random),

Fourier, Laplace, and z-transforms, analysis of continuous and discrete systems and circuits, design of analog and digital filters, fast Fourier transform algorithms and finite word-length effects in digital processors Presents a final chapter on advanced signal processing (including linear estimation, adaptive filters, over-sampling sigma-delta converters, and wavelets) to encourage further interest Contains numerous solved examples throughout and MATLAB(r) exercises at the end of each chapter

Written primarily for undergraduates, Analog Digital Signal Processing will also be an authoritative text for postgraduate students and professional engineers.

A textbook for a junior or senior undergraduate course for students familiar with the basic tools of real analysis, complex variables, calculus, and electrical network theory up to analyzing networks in the sinusoidal steady state. Some chapters require matrix algebra. Irish engineer Baher thinks it is time to introduce some areas of signal processing into the undergraduate curriculum that have traditionally been reserved for graduates. He is unabashedly rigorous about mathematics. The first edition appeared in 1990.

PROFESSOR H. BAHER obtained his Ph.D. in Electronic Engineering from University College Dublin and held academic positions at universities worldwide including University College Dublin, Virginia Polytechnic Institute and State University, the Professorship of Electronic Engineering at Dublin City University, and the prestigious Analog Devices Professorship in Massachusetts, USA. He has published four books: Synthesis of Electrical Networks (Wiley, 1984), Selective Linear-phase Switched-capacitor and Digital Filters (Kluwer 1993), Microelectronic Switched-capacitor Filters: with ISICAP: a Computer-aided Design Package (Wiley, 1996), and the highly regarded first edition of the present book. He is a Chartered Engineer in Ireland and the UK and a Fellow of the IEI.
