Since its original publication in 1971, this text has been a standard for signals and systems courses that emphasize probability. It provides an introduction to probability theory, statistics, random processes, and the analysis of systems with random inputs. The third edition will utilize MATLAB as a computational tool. It will be thoroughly revised to include new examples and problems, and updated to reflect the most current research and technologies. This book is intended for the junior/senior level engineering students.
Probabilistic Methods of Signal and System Analysis, 3/e stresses the engineering applications of probability theory, presenting the material at a level and in a manner ideally suited to engineering students at the junior or senior level. It is also useful as a review for graduate students and
practicing engineers.
Thoroughly revised and updated, this third edition incorporates increased use of the computer in both text examples and selected problems. It utilizes MATLAB as a computational tool and includes new sections relating to Bernoulli trials, correlation of data sets, smoothing of data, computer
computation of correlation functions and spectral densities, and computer simulation of systems. All computer examples can be run using the Student Version of MATLAB. Almost all of the examples and many of the problems have been modified or changed entirely, and a number of new problems have been
added. A separate appendix discusses and illustrates the application of computers to signal and system analysis.
