Product Description
Digital Signal Processing: A Computer-Based Approach is intended for a two-semester course on digital signal processing for seniors or first-year graduate students. Based on user feedback, a number of new topics have been added to the third edition, while some excess topics from the second edition have been removed. The author has taken great care to organize the chapters more logically by reordering the sections within chapters. More worked-out examples have also been included. The book contains more than 500 problems and 150 MATLAB exercises. New topics in the third edition include: short-time characterization of discrete-time signals, expanded coverage of discrete-time Fourier transform and discrete Fourier transform, prime factor algorithm for DFT computation, sliding DFT, zoom FFT, chirp Fourier transform, expanded coverage of z-transform, group delay equalization of IIR digital filters, design of computationally efficient FIR digital filters, semi-symbolic analysis of digital filter structures, spline interpolation, spectral factorization, discrete wavelet transform.

 digital signal processing October 5, 2008
Robert B. Vincelette Jr.
The text came in time for class to begin even though the time was short.
Great practical resource July 25, 2008
A reader (Santa Cruz, CA USA)
I can't say how this would be as an intro to signal processing, but it's an excellent book for the working engineer. This one spends more time on top of my desk than any of my other textbooks. It includes lots of examples, illustrations, Matlab code, review materials, etc. And Mitra is the king of allpass filters!
Great as a reference, probably not for a beginner June 9, 2007
Sujith (Bangalore, India)
This book is wonderful as a reference for those conversant in DSP. This book's primary strength is the breadth and depth of the material covered. This book contains material on a wide variety of topics; more than most DSP textbooks. The other selling point of this book is its close association with MATLAB. There are quite a few MATLAB examples in the companion CD. Using MATLAB makes learning DSP much easier and more intuitive. The reader can play around with the example programs to get a real feel for the subject matter. Beginners might find this book a bit difficult to read through. In a few places the explanation is either not clear or could have been written more intuitively. For newbies, I would probably suggest other books which are better written (such as Proakis).
I particularly liked the following sections:
Chapters 3-5 - Especially the sections of filter design for A/D and D/A converters. I like that the z-transform is introduced after Fourier transform.
Chapter 8 - A comprehensive treatment of filter structures.
Chapter 12 - Good coverage of issues associated with fixed point implementations. This can be appreciated more by practicing engineers.
Chapter 15 - This chapter looks at a few real world applications of DSP. Its both informative and insightful. This was my favorite chapter.
 Not useful for exam preparation May 16, 2007

3 out of 4 found this review helpful
Although this book has a good amount of Matlab examples, they will not help you prepare for any practical DSP exams. I recently bought this book as a required textbook for a graduate course on DSP and I found myself having to use my undergraduate book on DSP (Proakis) for learning the material and preparing for my exams. This book's weakness lies in the fact that the examples are not worked out in detail, but rather they are shown through the use of matlab functions and commands which will in no way prepare you for working out a problem's answers using the tried and true paper, pencil, and calculator approach. I found myself frustrated several times during my homework assignments because there were not enough examples worked out showing the nitty gritty details of the solution. Instead, the solutions were in matlab which only helps if the problem being solved is asking for a matlab solution. The only plus side of this book is that it does use matlab to teach some DSP concepts just as the title says but I agree with the other reviewers that this book is nothing special. I found Proakis and Manolakis to be a far better book with worked out problems and only used this Mitra book for matlab problems on DSP.
 Too expensive, not better than others May 8, 2006
S. K. (Israel)
I bought this book as it was a required book at the University. I found that it is no better then any other introductory book on DSP such as the one by Boaz Porat. Moreover, you could buy two other DSP books at the same price.
Regarding the content,I have to say that it does cover all the topics needed in an introductory DSP course and coupled with the MATLAB drills it will teach you step by step how to implement your DSP theory into practice using MATLAB.
Had it not been for the price, I would have given it 4 stars but no more than that.
