Key features covers all major dsp topics full of insider information and shortcuts basic techniques and algorithms explained without complex numbers - more about referex on engineering villlage here. - organizations with a referex account may read this book here. Description in addition to its thorough coverage of dsp design and programming techniques, smith also covers the operation and usage of dsp chips. He uses analog devices' popular dsp chip family as design examples. Also included on the cd-rom is technical info on dsp processors from the four major manufacturers (analog devices, texas instruments, motorola, and lucent) and other dsp software.
