A self-contained approach to DSP techniques and applications in radar imaging The processing of radar images, in general, consists of three major fields: Digital Signal Processing (DSP); antenna and radar operation; and algorithms used to process the radar images. This book brings together material from these different areas to allow readers to gain a thorough understanding of how radar images are processed.

Although DSP has long been considered an EE topic, recent developments have also generated significant interest from the computer science community. DSP applications in the consumer market, such as bioinformatics, the MP3 audio format, and MPEG-based cable/satellite television have fueled a desire to understand this technology outside of hardware circles. Designed for upper division engineering and computer science students as well as practicing engineers, Digital Signal Processing Using Matlab and Wavelets emphasizes the practical applications of signal processing. Over 100 Matlab projects and wavelet techniques provide the latest applications of DSP, including image processing, games, filters, transforms, networking, parallel processing, and sound. The book also provides the mathematical processes and techniques needed to ensure an understanding of DSP theory.

As demand for applications working in extended frequency ranges increases, classical Digital signal processing (DSP) techniques, not protected against aliasing, are becoming less effective. Digital alias-free signal processing (DASP) is a technique for overcoming the problems of aliasing at extended frequency ranges. Based on non-uniform or randomised sampling techniques and the development of novel algorithms, it creates the capacity to suppress potential aliasing crucial for high frequency applications and to reduce the complexity of designs.

This book provides practical and comprehensive coverage of the theory and techniques behind alias-free digital signal processing.

This book brings together the latest research achievements from various areas of signal processing and related disciplines in order to consolidate the existing and proposed new directions in DSP based knowledge extraction and information fusion. Within the book contributions presenting both novel algorithms and existing applications, especially those (but not restricted to) on-line processing of real world data are included.
The areas of Knowledge Extraction and Information Fusion are naturally linked and aim at detecting and estimating the signal of interest and its parameters, and further at combining measurements from multiple sensors (and associated databases if appropriate) to achieve improved accuracies and more specific inferences which cannot be achieved by using only a single signal modality.
The subject therefore is of major interest for modern biomedical, environmental, and industrial applications to provide a state of the art and propose new techniques in order to combine heterogeneous information sources.

Fundamentals of Signal Processing for Sound and Vibration Engineers is based on Joe Hammond’s many years of teaching experience at the Institute of Sound and Vibration Research, University of Southampton. Whilst the applications presented emphasise sound and vibration, the book focusses on the basic essentials of signal processing that ensures its appeal as a reference text to students and practitioners in all areas of mechanical, automotive, aerospace and civil engineering.

Although the programming and use of a Digital Signal Processor (DSP) may not be the most complex process, utilizing DSPs in applications such as motor control can be extremely challenging for the first-time user. DSP-Based Electromechanical Motion Control provides a general application guide for students and engineers who want to implement DSP-based motion control systems in products and industrial systems. This overview explains the benefits of integrating DSP into motion control, detailing the degree of freedom provided by a a DSP for the development of constructive, computationally extensive algorithms. The authors explain how the use of these advanced algorithms can drastically increase the performance and efficiency of an electromechanical system. Chapters are supported by laboratory exercises, enabling you to immediately apply the information to practical scenarios. Following an extensive analysis of the LF2407 DSP processor, the book presents numerous real-world applications, demonstrating current use and inspiring future development.

A complete and accessible introduction to the important field of microtechnology Understanding Microwaves covers all the important microwave terminology, devices, and systems, and provides an understanding of how everything fits together to make communications, navigation, and radar equipment. The text is geared toward engineers new to the microwave industry, as well as technicians, managers, and students. This field-tested book presents material the author has used in industrial training courses for thousands of students. It is easy to understand and avoids complex mathematics. With extensive exercises at the end of each chapter, and answers at the end of the book, it is suitable for self-study or as a text for industrial seminars and college courses.

The book is organized into four parts, based on descriptions of objects at four different levels of abstraction.
1. Generalized images-images and image-like entities.
2. Segmented images-images organized into subimages that are likely to correspond to "interesting objects."
3. Geometric structures-quantitative models of image and world structures.
4. Relational structures-complex symbolic descriptions of image and world structures.

The parts follow a progression of increasing abstractness. Although the four parts are most naturally studied in succession, they are not tightly interdependent. Part I is a prerequisite for Part II, but Parts III and IV can be read independently.
