Product Description

This introductory level book gives comprehensive treatment to signals and linear systems. It emphasizes the physical appreciation of concepts rather than the mere mathematical manipulation of symbols. Mathematics is used to enhance physical and intuitive understanding, instead of to prove axiomatic theory. This book is divided into five parts and allows for the flexible teaching of discrete-time and continuous-time systems. Wherever possible, theoretical results are interpreted heuristically and are supported by examples and analogies.

Linear Systems and Signals5
This introductory volume is very well-written and well-explained and covers the field of signals and linear systems comprehensively. This book offers rigorous but clear explanations, vivid examples in a plausible and easy to understand manner. This book, Linear Systems and Signals, provides a comprehensive treatment of the subject and encourages students to discover information and principles on their own. Author uses mathematics to enhance physical and intuitive understanding, instead of merely employing it to prove axiomatic theory. The book is conveniently organized into five parts that allow flexibility in teaching discrete-time and continuous-time systems.
This is an excellent book for undergraduates.

Excellent introduction to signals5
I am a third year physics student. while taking a course on signal analysis that was very electronics orientated, i found most signals books unhelpful in the way they present their material. this book is clear and the examples explain key concepts perfectly. i particularly like the coverage of convolution. once again, great book. very helpful.
