Publisher's Synopsis
This book is aimed primarily at the engineer or designer who is familiar with the theory and practice of analog system design and requires an introduction to DSP technology. It is also intended as a general handbook of processing algorithms and circuit design techniques for the experienced engineer, forming the basis for more advanced system development. The material is presented in the form of specific algorithms and explanatory material on hardware implementation so that the reader can tackle a section of the book and immediately try out a related design.;The book has been written so that a progressive development of understanding of the theoretical background to DSP can be established with sufficient theory to allow the reader to modify, extend and invent algorithms without running foul of fundamental theoretical constraints.;Extensive references are provided to enable theoretical progress beyond the scope of the text.;The book is in three sections. The first provides the context for the remainder, outlining the fundamental differences in approach between analog and digital signal processing design and giving a brief description of the architecture, instruction sets and performance of many typical DSP chips. The middle section, which constitutes the bulk of the book, covers general application areas (including filtering, spectral analysis, communications systems, speech processing) providing, in effect, a library of DSP algorithms accompanied in many cases by implementation examples based upon the Texas Instruments TMS 320 series of DSP devices. The final section is devoted to hardware design.
