This book approaches digital signal processing and filter design in a novel way, by presenting the relevant theory and then having the student apply it by implementing signal processing routines on a computer. This mixture of theory and application has worked successfully. With this approach, the students receive a deeper and intuitive understanding of the theory, its applications and its limitations. This text also includes projects that require students to write computer programs to accomplish signal processing projects. Salient Features The text has the flexibility of being used in a wide variety of digital signal processing courses at the undergraduate and graduate levels. In addition to the Problems, a set of Computer Projects is included, the programs for which should be written by the student. Instructions for program development are included as an integral part of the text and Project description. Two advanced topics are covered in describing the effects of finite precision encountered in practical hardware implementation of digital filters and an overview of inverse filters.
