Publisher's Synopsis
This textbook offers an interesting, straightforward introduction to probability and random processes. While helping students to develop their problem-solving skills, the book enables them to understand how to make the transition from real problems to probability models for those problems. To keep students motivated, the author uses a number of practical applications from various areas of electrical and computer engineering that demonstrate the relevance of probability theory to engineering practice. Discrete-time random processes are used to bridge the transition between random variables and continuous-time random processes. Additional material has been added to the second edition to provide a more substantial introduction to random processes.
