Analog Signals and Systems, 1st edition

For courses in Signals and Systems offered in departments of Electrical Engineering.

This book focuses on the mathematical analysis and design of analog signal processing using a “just in time” approach – new ideas and topics relevant to the narrative are introduced only when needed, and no chapters are “stand alone.” Topics are developed throughout the narrative, and individual ideas appear frequently as needed.

• Review of circuits in Chapter 1
• Review of complex numbers (Appendix C) – Ideal for student reference in conjunction with Chapters 1 and 2.
• Coverage of both frequency-domain and time-domain approaches – Explores the former in chapters 5-7, and the latter in chapters 9 and 10.
• Five labs involving simple measurement and/or design projects (Appendix L) – Give students a taste of how signal and system theory applies in practice.
