Concepts in Systems and Signals

For junior-level courses in Continuous-Time and Discrete-Time Systems and Signals, and Using MATLAB in Systems and Signals, for electrical, computer, and telecommunications engineering technology programs. Students must be comfortable with calculus.

This text provides a comprehensive review of the foundations of continuous-time systems, and introduces, with equal emphasis, the "new circuit theory" of discrete-time systems. It looks at the concepts and analysis tools associated with signal spectra-focusing on periodic signals and the Discrete Fourier Transform, and makes students aware of the capabilities of MATLAB.
