Product Description
Product Description
This textbook presents digital signal processing (DSP) principles, applications, and hardware implementation issues, emphasizing achievable results and conclusions through the presentation of numerous worked examples, while reducing the use of mathematics for an easier grasp of the concepts. Features include: real-time implementation of DSP algorithms using DSP processors; MATLAB programs for simulations and C programs for real-time DSP; coverage of adaptive filtering with applications to noise reduction and echo cancellation; applications of DSP to multimedia applications - such as u-law and adaptive differential pulse code modulation, sampling rate conversions, transform coding, image and video processing - show the relevance of DSP to a key area in industry; and, MATLAB programs, student exercises and Real-time C programs available at website. This text gives students in electronics, computer engineering and bioengineering an understanding of essential DSP principles and implementation, demonstrating how the subject is fundamental to engineering as practiced today. 'Professor Tan has written a comprehensive introduction to DSP, not lacking in theory and yet suitable for tech school as well as senior-level university courses. With this text one can move through all the main areas of modern DSP, learn the theory, and see plenty of illustrations in terms of hardware and software. It's an excellent reference for our present age, in which DSP has applications in practically every area of technology' - Samuel D. Stearns, Research Professor of Electrical and Computer Engineering, University of New Mexico. This title covers DSP principles and hardware issues with emphasis on applications and many worked examples. It features website with MATLAB programs for simulation and C programs for real-time DSP. Its end of chapter problems are helpful in ensuring retention and understanding of what was just read.

One of Very Best
10 Jun 2008
Format:Hardcover
It is an honor to be the first Amazon customer to review this book. The two DSP books which have received so far the highest Amazon customer reviews are those by Steven Smith and Richard Lyons. Proakis is a close third, though one reviewer says that its reader may wish to have Smith and Lyons in hand to help with understanding. This book by Li Tan belongs in the top three or four, if not the very top. My qualification for commenting on it comes from having just audited a graduate level DSP course, in which I happened to discover this book, along with the books by Stevens and Lyons, at the university library and used for outside study. The Smith and Lyons books were very helpful, but this one seemed to follow the course itself much more closely (actually covering material beyond the course), and so it was the most helpful of all. It is loaded with step by step, helpful examples, and also matlab code examples, some of which are particularly revealing and helpful. (Thank you for reading my review.)

At last, a DSP book for engineer instead of scientiest....
13 Nov 2008
Format:Hardcover
I think the reason DSP is preceived as difficult to understand, is because traditional book/class tend to spend most of the time solving equations such as DFT, FFT, Z-transform of different signal (pulse, unit step, sinusoidal, square, triangular etc), differential equation to get zero and pole, stability, then bilinear transformation etc. As a result, students might spend all the time doing mathematics, than trying to understand what DSP is and how to apply it to real world.
This book reduce the mathematics and proof to minimum when required, rather than throwing you all the equations and explanation at one time. For example, I dont always why other authors always try to explain the details of non-causal system since they usually say real time system is always causal and hence ignore the non-causal DSP design.
I particularly like the exercise and MATLAB code. They are incredibly simple, but are very useful to aid understanding and cover almost all aspect of a DSP system, from equalizing ADC quantising noise, through to multirate DSP (which is rarely touched by most of the fundamental DSP books). The MATLAB code allows the reader to design filter and visualise the signal and its frequency spectrum very quickly. I think it is more important for beginner to first understand the concept of DSP using MATLAB, than trying to solve the mathematics, try to write C-code for FFT and plotting graph.
As I mentioned, the mathematics is not detailed in this book. This is a double edge sword. Reader should have good knowledge on FFT, Z-transform. I recommend reading "Understanding Digital Signal Processing" by Lyons beforehand, which provide very good explanation on fundamental DSP theory and mathematics.
This is the most useful DSP book I have ever read!!!!

Good book

Its a book with information that I needed for school. I'm not sure how to rate this other than it has a lot of information, it's easy to read, and it has a ton of MATLAB examples. MATLAB will help you out immensely because there are some VERY LONG calculations that MATLAB does in one command.
