Excellent book, Aug 30 2003

This is the book to get if you're an Electrical/Computer Engineering student. It should be worth more for its marvelous coverage of all the topics. It was nice to be able to have it as reference but it is also nice to have for learning concepts. I used this book extensively to teach myself Fourier Series and Fourier Transforms in preparation for an introduction to Communication Systems Engineering Class. This book has also helped me understand concepts for other classes (Laplace Transforms, Z-Transforms etc) I highly recommend this book. It is well written and flow nicely. A bonus is the problem sets with solutions.

Great as a Companion Book!!!, April 29 2003

I am currently taking a intro to Digital Signal Processing at my university. I find this book is a very good complement to Proakis' Digital Signal Processing book. I have learned a lot about DSP using these two books. the aim of this book is to be a companion book to more traditional DSP books, it tries to be nothing more. In that regard, I believe the book excels. Get it as a supplement/companion to a traditional DSP book and you will learn how to do DSP with MATLAB. Highly recommended!!!

A very well written book, April 19 2003

I am currently taking an undergraduate intro to DSP class at Cal Poly Pomona. I have to say that I cannot put this book down!!. Mr Proakis does an excellent job presenting the material in a very readable format. I think this is a very good intro to Digital Signal Processing. The book has a nice flow and does a very good job in introducing the concepts. Another plus for the book are the examples provided. There are some very good problems at the end of each chapter. If you are getting this book I recommend the companion book "Digital Signal Processing with MATLAB" by Vinay K. Ingle and John G. Proakis. I highly recommend this book.
