The second edition of this comprehensive text continues to explore basic concepts and applications of signal system analysis. It is assumed students have completed a course in circuits and have a... This description may be from another edition of this product.
I had an excellent undergraduate professor-doctor from Illinois (Urbana-Champlain) with background in brushless motors and emags. His guidance combined with Hwei P. Hsu's Schaum's Outline on Signals and Systems were my first instructors. I didn't think I would ever find something or someone else who could ever really extend and reinforce my understanding, but this book has! It's well written and has great references. The first chapter references Richard Courant's Methods of Mathematical Physics! And later chapters demonstrate applications of theory in practice from electrical to optical systems.
Comprehensive

This book is well written and comprehensive. It is good as a reference or primary text on the topic of signals and systems. The level of the material is suitable for an upper division undergraduate or working engineer. There are a fair number of typos in the book, but is excellent otherwise.
Excellent book on Signal & Systems
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 23 years ago
There are many books on Signals & Systems available today, but this book is different because it not only explains but it also compares the mathematical tools commonly used for the analyis and synthesis of linear systems. You don't get bored by simplistic examples, but in the contrary the examples given do show the power of these mathematical tools. As student, I read the book twice and it gave me a good understanding about the underlying principles behind linear systems. Anyone looking for a reference on linear systems at an undergraduate level will find this book very useful.
Excellent reference

This is an excellent reference for any undergraduate studying signals and systems. It provides many clear and concise examples of hard to grasp topics such as Fourier series, Fast Fourier Transforms, convolution, and state space methods, etc. Although no solutions are provided for the chapter excercises, there are plenty of examples and explanation in the text to comprehend the topics. I highly recommend it!
Excellent Book

This is a great book that can be used in a Signals and Systems class. The theory is presented very well. This book can be complemented with software tools such as MATLAB.
