Discrete Random Signals And Statistical Signal Processing

This book describes the essential tools and techniques of statistical signal processing. At every stage theoretical ideas are linked to specific applications in communications and signal processing using a range of carefully chosen examples. The book begins with a development of basic probability, random objects, expectation, and second order moment theory followed by a wide variety of examples of the most popular random process models and their basic uses and properties. Specific applications to the analysis of random signals and systems for communicating, estimating, detecting, modulating, and other processing of signals are interspersed throughout the book. Hundreds of homework problems are included and the book is ideal for graduate students of electrical engineering and applied mathematics. It is also a useful reference for researchers in signal processing and communications.

This self-contained, deliberately compact, and user-friendly book is designed for a first, one-semester course in statistical signal analysis for a broad audience of students in engineering and the physical sciences. The emphasis throughout is on fundamental concepts and relationships in the statistical theory of stationary random signals, explained in a concise, yet fairly rigorous presentation. Developed by the author over the course of several years of classroom use, this book may be used by junior/senior undergraduates or graduate students in electrical, systems, computer, and biomedical engineering, as well as the physical sciences.

Nowadays, many aspects of electrical and electronic engineering are essentially applications of DSP. This is due to the focus on processing information in the form of digital signals, using certain DSP hardware designed to execute software. Fundamental topics in digital signal processing are introduced with theory, analytical tables, and applications with simulation tools. The book provides a collection of solved problems on digital signal processing and statistical signal processing. The solutions are based directly on the math-formulas given in extensive tables throughout the book, so the reader can solve practical problems on signal processing quickly and efficiently. FEATURES Explains how applications of DSP can be implemented in certain programming environments designed for real time systems, ex. biomedical signal analysis and medical image processing. Pairs theory with basic concepts and supporting analytical tables. Includes an extensive collection of solved problems throughout the text. Fosters the ability to solve practical problems on signal processing without focusing on extended theory. Covers the modeling process and addresses broader fundamental issues.

Engineers in all fields will appreciate a practical guide that combines several new effective MATLAB® problem-solving approaches and the very latest in discrete random signal processing and filtering. Numerous Useful Examples, Problems, and Solutions – An Extensive and Powerful Review Written for practicing engineers seeking to strengthen their practical grasp of random signal processing, Discrete Random Signal Processing and Filtering Primer with MATLAB provides the opportunity to doubly enhance their skills. The author, a leading expert in the field of electrical and computer engineering, offers a solid review of recent developments in discrete signal processing. The book also details the latest progress in the revolutionary MATLAB language. A Practical Self-Tutorial That Transcends Theory The author introduces an incremental discussion of signal processing and filtering, and presents several new methods that can be used for a more dynamic analysis of random digital signals with both linear and non-linear filtering. Ideal as a self-tutorial, this book includes numerous examples and functions, which can be used to select parameters, perform simulations, and analyze results. This concise guide encourages readers to use MATLAB functions – and those new ones introduced as Book MATLAB Functions – to substitute many different combinations of parameters, giving them a firm grasp of how much each parameter affects results. Much more than a simple review of theory, this book emphasizes problem solving and result analysis, enabling readers to take a hands-on approach to advance their own understanding of MATLAB and the way it is used within signal processing and filtering.

This is the first book to introduce and integrate advanced digital signal processing (DSP) and classification together, and the only volume to introduce state-of-the-art transforms including DFT, FFT, DCT, DHT, PCT, CDT, and ODT together for DSP and communication applications. You get step-by-step guidance in discrete-time domain signal processing and frequency domain signal analysis; digital filter design and adaptive filtering; multirate digital processing; and statistical signal classification. It also helps you overcome problems associated with multirate A/D and D/A converters.

The only book on the subject at this level, this is a well written formalised and concise presentation of the basis of statistical signal processing. It teaches a wide variety of techniques, demonstrating how they can be applied to many different situations.
