Signals and Systems 2nd Edition

Signals and Systems, Second Edition, by Simon Haykin and Barry Van Veen, is designed for one- or two-semester undergraduate courses. It introduces core concepts of signals and systems, including classification, operations, and system analysis using Fourier, Laplace, and z-transforms. The book emphasizes practical applications in communications, filter design, and control systems, with a balanced approach to continuous- and discrete-time topics.

This International Adaptation offers expanded content with additional examples and exercises, and features a reorganized structure in selected chapters to better support diverse learning needs and improve course alignment.

Simon Haykin, PhD, is University Professor and Director of the Adaptive Systems Laboratory at McMaster University.
