Description
Book SynopsisThis book provides a comprehensive, modern approach to signals and systems, concentrating on those aspects that are most relevant for applications such as communication systems and signal processing. Emphasis is placed on building the readera s intuition and problem--solving ability, rather than formal theorems and proofs.
