This book is a self-contained introduction to the theory of signals and systems, which lies at the basis of many areas of electrical and computer engineering. In the seventy short ?glectures,?h formatted to facilitate self-learning and to provide easy reference, the book covers such topics as linear time-invariant (LTI) systems, the Fourier transform, the Laplace Transform and its application to LTI differential systems, state-space systems, the z-transform, signal analysis using MATLAB, and the application of transform techniques to communication systems. A wide array of technologies, including feedback control, analog and discrete-time fi lters, modulation, and sampling systems are discussed in connection with their basis in signals and systems theory. The accompanying CD-ROM includes applets, source code, sample examinations, and exercises with selected solutions.

"Provides rigorous treatment of deterministic and random signals"--

An exploration of the basics of signal theory, and of both the time-and frequency-domain analyses of systems. The discrete and continuous-time cases are presented in parallel, at times in a two-column format for ease of comparison. Separate chapters examine applications in signal processing, digital filtering, communication systems, and automatic c.

This comprehensive text on control systems is designed for undergraduate students pursuing courses in electronics and communication engineering, electrical and electronics engineering, telecommunication engineering, electronics and instrumentation engineering, mechanical engineering, and biomedical engineering. Appropriate for self-study, the book will also be useful for AMIE and IETE students. Written in a student-friendly readable manner, the book explains the basic fundamentals and concepts of control systems in a clearly understandable form. It is a balanced survey of theory aimed to provide the students with an in-depth insight into system behaviour and control of continuous-time control systems. All the solved and unsolved problems in this book are classroom tested, designed to illustrate the topics in a clear and thorough way. KEY FEATURES : Includes several fully worked-out examples to help students master the concepts involved. Provides short questions with answers at the end of each chapter to help students prepare for exams confidently. Offers fill in the blanks and objective type questions with answers at the end of each chapter to quiz students on key learning points. Gives chapter-end review questions and problems to assist students in reinforcing their knowledge.
