Product Details


Product Description

Review

"Until now, digital signal processing has required at least a high-powered education in mathematics, if not an engineering degree. I've seen books on digital signal processing that you could use for weightlifting. Fortunately, a very practical approach to the subject, which explains the math rather than ignoring it, is a remarkable book by James D. Broesch called Digital Signal Processing Demystified. The book comes with a CD-ROM that contains Windows software (DSP Calculator) which allows you to experiment with some of the concepts in the book, and is good enough for professional use."
--Nuts and Volts magazine

"... the approach is very interactive. The author alternately explains a concept (such as the polynomial series, the Taylor series, convolution, z-transforms, DFTs, and FFTs, FIR filters, and IIR filters) and then challenges the reader to use the interactive software (provided on a CD-ROM provided with the book) to experiment with these concepts. By experimenting with the software, the reader develops an intuitive sense of what is behind the mathematics of DSP."
--VMEbus Systems magazine

Product Description

James D. Broesch is a staff engineer for General Atomics, where he is responsible for the design and development of several advanced control systems used on fusion control programs. He also teaches classes in signal processing and hardware design at the University of California-San Diego.

· Integrated book/software package allows readers to simulate digital signal processing (DSP) situations and experiment with effects of different DSP techniques.
· Gives an applications-oriented approach to DSP instead of a purely mathematical one.
· The accompanying CD includes a DSP "calculator" to help solve design problems

4.0 out of 5 stars There is a simple, yet great thinking behind its material, Dec 26 2002
By 
This review is from: Digital Signal Processing Demystified (Paperback)
The book is very good, you can share the author's thinking and it is very interesting for beginners or engineers who do not like to go through complicated mathematical proofs.
The CD ROM calculator is nice to use, but it needs more improvement especially in scale adjustments. The calculator can be better improved by developing some interfaces for copy and paste utilities including presenting numbers on the graphs. I almost finished most of it the same day I purchased, but still cannot be used alone to understand DSP. Nevertheless, it was a wonderful experience to grasp interesting interpretation of the authors' thinking, which reflects practicality dimension to the subject. Well done

4.0 out of 5 stars good introduction to DSP, July 12 1999
By A Customer
This review is from: Digital Signal Processing Demystified (Paperback)
This is a good book for readers who didn't have much background in math and DSP fields. It contains lots of useful information. But for a experienced engineer or colleage students, this book is a little too easy.

4.0 out of 5 stars A good book, May 14 1999
By A Customer
This review is from: Digital Signal Processing Demystified (Paperback)
For a person looking for a simple introduction to DSP, this book is a good start. Many of the theories are presented very simply. For an in-depth understanding, I would've liked to see references at the end of each chapter that would lead me to books that might deal the topic(s) in greater detail. But for a person looking for a foothold in DSP, this book is highly recommended.
