Book description
This book presents recent advances in DSP to simplify, or increase the
computational speed of, common signal processing operations. The topics
describe clever DSP tricks of the trade not covered in conventional DSP
textbooks. This material is practical, real-world, DSP tips and tricks
as opposed to the traditional highly-specialized, math-intensive,
research subjects directed at industry researchers and university
professors. This book goes well beyond the standard DSP fundamentals
textbook and presents new, but tried-and-true, clever implementations of
digital filter design, spectrum analysis, signal generation, high-speed
function approximation, and various other DSP functions.
