Customer Reviews

I have a stack of Linear books: this is the best I've seen.

It covers linear control processes well. Best it gives MatLab code for plotting responses and solved problems. It has a 6th order filter called Chebyshev digital filter that has a very near flat top as a band pass in the Bode plot! These methods aren't well covered in my other books and will be of use in studying nonlinear systems as well.

a must read for all 2nd/3rd year electronic engg. students

I was hunting for a single book which covers the area of signals and systems, communication theory, design (transforms related to these topics) using MATLAB (I have a student version 5.0). Every topic is well illustrated with MATLAB programs along with the associated terms, definitions and the mathematical details along with figures for proper visualization. This book an excellent supplement to standard textbooks in these areas.The presentation is crisp and clear. I experienced the "joy of understanding" while using this text with the software.
