Digital Signal Processing Technology
-- Essentials of the Communications Revolution

by Doug Smith, KF6DX

A complete, readable presentation on Digital Signal Processing (DSP) in communications technology. The work is sufficiently analytical for those skilled in math to fully understand DSP and its applications, while simultaneously affording those less mathematically inclined an understandable picture of this exciting technology. Presented from an engineering perspective, the material achieves a balance between theory and practice.

Smith gives a complete discussion of contemporary DSP technology, with special emphasis on applications of DSP in communications.
