"The definitive, authoritative text on DSP - ideal for those with an introductory-level knowledge of signals and systems. Written by prominent DSP pioneers, it provides thorough treatment of the fundamental theorems and properties of discrete-time linear systems, filtering, sampling, and discrete-time Fourier Analysis. By focusing on the general and universal concepts in discrete-time signal processing, it remains vital and relevant to the new challenges arising in the field."--Publisher's description.

"Introduction to Digital Speech Processing highlights the central role of DSP techniques in modern speech communication research and applications. It presents a comprehensive overview of digital speech processing that ranges from the basic nature of the speech signal, through a variety of methods of representing speech in digital form, to applications in voice communication and automatic synthesis and recognition of speech. Introduction to Digital Speech Processing provides the reader with a practical introduction to the wide range of important concepts that comprise the field of digital speech processing."
