From the Publisher:

A comprehensive set of computer exercises of varying levels of difficulty covering the fundamentals of signals and systems. The exercises require the reader to compare answers they compute in MATLAB� with results and predictions made based on their understanding of material. The book is compatible with any introductory course or text on signals and systems.

From the Back Cover:

FEATURES:

Real-World applications and actual data actively engage the reader with concrete problems that reinforce intuition and critical thinking: Speech processing. Financial time series analysis. Stabilization of mechanical systems with feedback. Communication systems (AM, FM, FDMA, TDMA, SSB, Asynchronous demodulation). Electrical circuits. FIR and IIR Filter design (frequency sampling, least squares, Butterworth, Parks-McCellan). Automobile suspension. Image Processing. Telephony.

A large number of problems (about 750) offer flexibility for the instructor, allowing the book to be used every semester without re-using problems. Problems are divided into Basic, Intermediate, and Advanced levels, ensuring mastery of the fundamental tools before exposure to applications and advanced concepts. Ten (10) Tutorial sections provide worked examples to expose students to the fundamental conceptual tools and MATLAB functions used in that chapter. Covers both continuous and discrete-time signals and systems. Contains a comprehensive index of topics covered. Exercises can be completed with the student edition of MATLAB 4.0.
