Digital Signal Processing Using Matlab by Proakis and Ingle

Digital Signal Processing Using Matlab by Proakis and Ingle integrates traditional topics in DSP with MATLAB to explore difficult topics and solve problems to gain insight.

The first eight chapters of this book discuss traditional material covered in an introductory course on DSP. The last two chapters present applications in adaptive filtering and communications with emphasis on projects based on MATLAB. Numerous MATLAB scripts are included throughout the book, and several functions from the Signal Processing Toolbox are introduced and applied.

This greatly expands the range and complexity of problems that students can effectively study in signal processing courses. A large number of worked examples, computer simulations and applications are provided, along with theoretical aspects that are essential in order to gain a good understanding of the main topics. Practicing engineers may also find it useful as an introductory text on the subject.

Green's Theorem

In mathematics, Green's theorem gives the relationship between a line integral around a simple closed curve C and a double integral over the plane region D bounded by C. It is the two-dimensional special case of the more general Stokes' theorem, and is named after British mathematician George Green.

Let C be a positively oriented, piecewise smooth, simple closed curve in the plane ², and let D be the region bounded by C. If L and M are functions of (x, y) defined on an open region containing D and have continuous partial derivatives there, then

For positive orientation, an arrow pointing in the counterclockwise direction may be drawn in the small circle in the integral symbol.

In physics, Green's theorem is mostly used to solve two-dimensional flow integrals, stating that the sum of fluid outflows at any point inside a volume is equal to the total outflow summed about an enclosing area. In plane geometry, and in particular, area surveying, Green's theorem can be used to determine the area and centroid of plane figures solely by integrating over the perimeter.

Vector Integration: Line Integral

In mathematics, a line integral (sometimes called a path integral, contour integral, or curve integral; not to be confused with calculating arc length using integration) is an integral where the function to be integrated is evaluated along a curve.

The function to be integrated may be a scalar field or a vector field. The value of the line integral is the sum of values of the field at all points on the curve, weighted by some scalar function on the curve (commonly arc length or, for a vector field, the scalar product of the vector field with a differential vector in the curve). This weighing distinguishes the line integral from simpler integrals defined on intervals. Many simple formulae in physics (for example,W=F·s) have natural continuous analogs in terms of line integrals (W=∫_C F· ds). The line integral finds the work done on an object moving through an electric or gravitational field, for example.

Equilibrium of Concurrent and Coplanar Force System

The conditions of equilibrium for concurrent force systems are obtained by determining the equations that produce a zero resultant. The magnitude of the resultant of a concurrent force system is found by means of the equation:

Obviously, the resultant will be zero and equilibrium will exist when the following equations are satisfied:

These equations are known as the conditions of equilibrium. It is important to note that with two conditions of equilibrium, only two unknown quantities can be determined to create equilibrium of a concurrent force system. (from Engineering Mechanics, 2nd edition by Ferdinand Singer)

The presentation file below gives a thorough discussion on equilibrium of concurrent and coplanar force systems:

Superposition

Superposition is a good method to apply in analyzing circuits with multiple sources. The basic concept of this method is to analyze a circuit one source at a time. Using the Superposition Theorem, we remove all the independent sources, except one, and analyze that circuit for that one. Then we repeat the procedure for another source, and so on. Finally, the net result is found by summing all the single -source results. 

'Removing' Power Sources

If we have two voltage sources and we were to remove one source, and still have a complete circuit, we must replace the voltage source with a short circuit.

Source Transformation

In order to solve difficult and complicated circuits, it is important to simplify the given circuit for easier analysis. One way to simplify circuits is by Source Transformation. It is the process of using Ohm's Law to take an existing voltage source in series with a resistance, and replace it with a current source in parallel with the same resistance or vice-versa. This method can be applied to Thevenin's theorem and Norton's theorem.

Vector Differentiation

In calculus we compute derivatives of real functions of a real variable. In the case of functions of a single variable

            y = f(x)

we compute the derivative of y with respect to x. In the case of a function of several variables

            y = f(x₁, x₂, ... , x_n)

we can compute the derivative of y with respect to any one of the independent variables, viewing the others as fixed.

In vector analysis we compute derivatives of vector functions of a real variable; that is we compute derivatives of functions of the type

            F(t) = f₁(t) i + f₂(t) j + f₃(t) k

This function can be viewed as describing a space curve. Intuitively it can be regarded as a position vector, expressed as a function of t, that traces out a space curve with increasing values of t. Expressed in different notation it is the function
      R(t) = x(t) i + y(t) j + z(t) k
