Elements of Signals and Systems by Alexander D Poularikas

Elements of Signals and Systems by Alexander D Poularikas

This text provides an essential parallel treatment of continuous time and discrete time methods in signals and signal processing modelling and simulation, digital signal processing, filter theory and digital filters. Every topic is illustrated by applications and examples from both the students' background in electrical circuits, and from practical unrelated fields, such as: economics, physics, biomedical engineering, chemistry and heat transfer. The authors take into consideration the fact that students' previous mathematical studies may be too limited for many of the topics considered and, therefore, all essential mathematical details are included. Where a given development might involve extensive mathematical demands, this is indicated by use of a symbol at the section title. An appendix on matrix theory is included as support material to state equation development. This book should be of interest to degree and diploma students on courses in signals and systems; a knowledge of circuit theory and mathematics through differential equations is a prerequisite.

Alexander D. Poularikas received his Ph.D from the University of Arkansas, Fayetteville, Arkansas, and became a professor at the University of Rhode Island, Kingston, Rhode Island. He became the chairman of the engineering department at the University of Denver, Denver, Colorado, and then became the chairman of the electrical and computer engineering department at the University of Alabama in Huntsville, Huntsville, Alabama. Dr. Poularikas has published seven books and has edited two. He has served as the editor in chief of the Signal Processing series (1993-1997) with Artech House, and is now the editor in chief of the Electrical Engineering and Applied Signal Processing series as well as the Engineering and Science Primer series (1998 to present) with Taylor & Francis. He is a Fulbright scholar, a lifelong senior member of the IEEE, and a member of Tau Beta Pi, Sigma Nu, and Sigma Pi. In 1990 and in 1996, he received the Outstanding Educators Award of the IEEE, Huntsville Section. He is now a professor emeritus at the University of Alabama in Huntsville.
