Signal Analysis : Wavelets, Filter Banks, Time-Frequency Transforms and Applications
Alfred Mertins / Hardcover / Published February 1999
Price: $100.00 - Ships in 2-3 days
Signal analysis gives an insight into the properties of signals and stochastic processes by methodology. Linear transforms are integral to the continuing growth of signal processes as they characterize and classify signals. In particular, those transforms that provide time-frequency signal analysis are attracting greater numbers of researchers and are becoming an area of considerable importance. The key characteristic of these transforms, along with a certain time-frequency localization called the wavelet transform and various types of multirate filter banks, is their high computational effici...
