Concepts in Systems and Signals

This book provides a complete overview of the foundations of continuous-time systems, and introduces the “new circuit theory” of discrete-time systems. It looks at the concepts and analysis tools associated with signal spectra—focusing on periodic signals and the Discrete Fourier Transform, making readers aware of the capabilities of MATLAB. Topics include analysis techniques, frequency response, standard filters, spectral analysis, discrete-time signals and systems, IRR and FIR filter designs, and sampling strategies. For those involved in electrical, computer, and telecommunications engineering.
