Random Signals for Engineers Using MATLAB® and Mathcad® - Jaffe, Richard C.

. .

Résumé :
This introduction to random variables and signals for advanced undergraduates or beginning graduate students provides the analytical and computational tools for processing random signals. It uses Mathcad and Matlab to present the underlying theory and for a large number of examples and applications. The book is eminently suited for self study as well as classroom use....
