Detection and Estimation Theory [Paperback]

Thomas Schonhoff (Author), Arthur Giordano (Author)

Book Description

ISBN-10: 0130894990 | ISBN-13: 978-0130894991 | Publication Date: November 10, 2006 | Edition: 1

This is the first reader-friendly book to comprehensively address the topics of both detection and estimation – with a thorough discussion of the underlying theory as well as the practical applications.   Modernizes classical topics by focusing on discrete signal processing with continuous signal presentations included to demonstrate uniformity and consistency of the results. Summarizes concepts that are extensively treated in other sources, but are provided here to reacquaint readers with these topics and introduce a consistent notation used throughout. Illustrates the application of previously developed general principles. CoversMATLAB m-file and Simulink routines;does not require prior knowledge of MATLAB. A useful reference text for practicing engineers.

This review is from: Detection and Estimation Theory (Paperback)

In my opinion, this book is for people who want to learn detection and estimation theory for communications quickly. It brings together many of the main ideas in modern detection and estimation problems for communications engineering in one place. This book is suitable for master and PhD student, as well as engineers in electric engineering such as signal processing and communications. Additionally, for researchers the book contains a number of advanced sections in many chapters. Dr. Mohamed Sahmoudi, CAC, Villanova University, PA, USA.
