Continuous Time Signals And Systems Version 2012 01 11

This book is intended for use in teaching undergraduate courses on continuous-time signals and systems in engineering (and related) disciplines. It has been used for several years for teaching purposes in the Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering at the University of Victoria and has been very well received by students. This book provides a detailed introduction to continuous-time signals and systems, with a focus on both theory and applications. The mathematics underlying signals and systems is presented, including topics such as: properties of signals, properties of systems, convolution, Fourier series, the Fourier transform, frequency spectra, and the bilateral and unilateral Laplace transforms. Applications of the theory are also explored, including: filtering, equalization, amplitude modulation, sampling, feedback control systems, circuit analysis, and Laplace-domain techniques for solving differential equations. Other supplemental material is also included, such as: a detailed introduction to MATLAB, a review of complex analysis, and an exploration of time-domain techniques for solving differential equations. Throughout the book, many worked-through examples are provided. Problem sets are also provided for each major topic covered.

The book is written for an undergraduate course on the Signals and Systems. It provides comprehensive explanation of continuous time signals and systems , analogous systems, Fourier transform, Laplace transform, state variable analysis and z-transform analysis of systems. The book starts with the various types of signals and operations on signals. It explains the classification of continuous time signals and systems. Then it includes the discussion of analogous systems. The book provides detailed discussion of Fourier transform representation, properties of Fourier transform and its applications to network analysis. The book also covers the Laplace transform, its properties and network analysis using Laplace transform with and without initial conditions. The book provides the detailed explanation of modern approach of system analysis called the state variable analysis. It includes various methods of state space representation of systems, finding the state transition matrix and solution of state equation. The discussion of network topology is also included in the book. The chapter on z-transform includes the properties of ROC, properties of z-transform, inverse z-transform, z-transform analysis of LTI systems and pulse transfer function. The state space representation of discrete systems is also incorporated in the book. The book uses plain, simple and lucid language to explain each topic. The book provides the logical method of explaining the various complicated topics and stepwise methods to make the understanding easy. The variety of solved examples is the feature of this book. The book explains the philosophy of the subject which makes the understanding of the concepts very clear and makes the subject more interesting.

This book is intended for use in teaching undergraduate courses on continuous-time and/or discrete-time signals and systems in engineering (and related) disciplines. It provides a detailed introduction to continuous-time and discrete-time signals and systems, with a focus on both theory and applications. The mathematics underlying signals and systems is presented, including topics such as: signal properties, elementary signals, system properties, continuous-time and discrete-time linear time-invariant systems, convolution, continuous-time and discrete-time Fourier series, the continuous-time and discrete-time Fourier transforms, frequency spectra, and the bilateral and unilateral Laplace and z transforms. Applications of the theory are also explored, including: filtering, equalization, amplitude modulation, sampling, feedback control systems, circuit analysis, Laplace-domain techniques for solving differential equations, and z-domain techniques for solving difference equations. Other supplemental material is also included, such as: a detailed introduction to MATLAB, a review of complex analysis, an introduction to partial fraction expansions, an exploration of time-domain techniques for solving differential equations, and information on online video-lecture content for material covered in the book. Throughout the book, many worked-through examples are provided. Problem sets are also provided for each major topic covered.

This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 7th International Conference on Sequences and Their Applications, SETA 2012, held in Waterloo, Canada, in June 2012. The 28 full papers presented together with 2 invited papers in this volume were carefully reviewed and selected from 48 submissions. The papers are grouped in topical sections on perfect sequences; finite fields; boolean functions; Golomb 80th birthday session; linear complexity; frequency hopping; correlation of sequences; bounds on sequences, cryptography; aperiodic correlation; and Walsh transform.
