About This Book

signal processing (DSP). Instead it is more of a practical guide on how to enable
2 _' O' A' N; Y/ }, KLabVIEW to tackle some real-world DSP and communication problems. This
% b! t `5 l! B3 s9 `5 Z% s* ?book assumes that the reader has a good grasp of many of the complex issues4 i* w( K6 o! p2 o
encountered in DSP and digital communications and also is at least skilled

heart of signal processing topics and their implications will be explored. Certain6 o3 F2 [9 o4 b# C; N& d
topics will be explained in enough detail so that the reader will know there is

book skips all that and assumes that you already know enough about DSP to

course the reader is encouraged to look at those references for any concept that+ {+ G* [, t# E

a good intuitive feel for many complicated DSP subjects while the Oppenheim0 ^( G, o' F; @. _ n) O& A- f7 ]$ [+ r
