Encyclopaedic Dictionary of Signal & Image Processing

Advances in signal processing techniques have been fundamental to many technological developments in communications, medicine, consumer electronics and defence. A consequence of this has been a virtual explosion of terminology describing signal processing methods and implementations. This reference gives a comprehensive treatment of the theory and practice of signal processing (digital and analogue). Arranged alphabetically, entries include short, dictionary type definitions and longer encyclopaedic articles. A definitive source of accurate and concise information on modern signal processing terminology Comprehensively covers all applications areas - communications, seismic, biomedical, rdar / sonar multimedia, VLSI and industrial technology (including hardware and software issues) Structured to allow rapid access to essential information with extensive cross references, cross-referred blind entries, indexes, literature, software and internet references and bibliography Features contributions from 12 international authorities in signal processing Includes all topics covered in the Editors Information Classification Scheme of the IEEE Transactions in Signal Processing
