Product Description
Review
"Until now, digital signal processing has required at least a high-powered education in mathematics, if not an engineering degree. I've seen books on digital signal processing that you could use for weightlifting. Fortunately, a very practical approach to the subject, which explains the math rather than ignoring it, is a remarkable book by James D. Broesch called Digital Signal Processing Demystified. The book comes with a CD-ROM that contains Windows software (DSP Calculator) which allows you to experiment with some of the concepts in the book, and is good enough for professional use."
--Nuts and Volts magazine
"... the approach is very interactive. The author alternately explains a concept (such as the polynomial series, the Taylor series, convolution, z-transforms, DFTs, and FFTs, FIR filters, and IIR filters) and then challenges the reader to use the interactive software (provided on a CD-ROM provided with the book) to experiment with these concepts. By experimenting with the software, the reader develops an intuitive sense of what is behind the mathematics of DSP."

Product Description
James D. Broesch is a staff engineer for General Atomics, where he is responsible for the design and development of several advanced control systems used on fusion control programs. He also teaches classes in signal processing and hardware design at the University of California-San Diego.
· Integrated book/software package allows readers to simulate digital signal processing (DSP) situations and experiment with effects of different DSP techniques.
· Gives an applications-oriented approach to DSP instead of a purely mathematical one.
· The accompanying CD includes a DSP "calculator" to help solve design problems

4.0 out of 5 stars
Easy Reader,
By A Customer
This review is from: Digital Signal Processing Demystified (Engineering Mentor) (Paperback)
Not enough math to teach a college course from it, but it's still packed with useful information. A good gap filler between how the real world works and how it's done theoretically. If it had C code segments, I'd give it that last star.
4.0 out of 5 stars
A very readable, quick intro to DSP,
By A Customer
This review is from: Digital Signal Processing Demystified (Engineering Mentor) (Paperback)
I found this to be a very useful book, although I did not use the CD-ROM. I think the author develops the concept of the z-transform and DFT very nicely and intuitively. The sections on FIR and IIR filters seem to go by relatively quickly, however. People trained in technical fields outside of EE may find this a very helpful tool for grasping core DSP ideas.
5.0 out of 5 stars
Outstanding introduction to DSP,
By A Customer
This review is from: Digital Signal Processing Demystified (Engineering Mentor) (Paperback)
This is one of the best books I have found for getting you up to speed fast on how to use digital signal processing. The author provides all the necessary math background, the text is easy to read and the examples are practical. The accompanying CD is a virtual DSP laboratory that is well worth the price of the book itself. I highly recommend this book to anyone trying to learn about and use DSP.
