Digital Filters: Theory, Application and Design of Modern Filters

T his book leads the reader from introductory concepts of discrete time signals and the filters used to shape and use the signals all the way to the practice of designing filters that are optimum in the least square sense. The text also introduces its readers to the implementation techniques of the filters and the computation algorithms so that the computation load is reduced. Digital Filters is suited for the practitioner, and can also serve as textbook for a graduate course. In the book the reader will also find software implementations of the filters using MATLAB. A collection of about 190 problems and projects is available online (www.wiley–vch.de). From the Contents: Background and Introduction Discrete Time Signals and Systems Discrete Time Systems in the Frequency Domain The Z–Transform Discrete Filter Design Techniques Computing the DFT Multirate Signal Processing and Devices Introduction to Stochastic Processes Weiner Filters Adaptive Filters Please go to the book’s catalogue entry on www.wiley–vch.de for a collection of problems and projects.
