Statisical and Adaptive Signal Processi (Artech House Signal Processing Library)

This book contains all the stuff about spectral estimations methods. ITs well organised. I like the summary notes for sections and chapters. Overall its a good book with all the needed maths review at the back of the book.

This book gives a brief overview of fundamentals of Digital Signal Processing and Stochastic methods, before graduating to the core topics, namely Signal Modeling and Parameter EstimationNon-parametric estimation, Optimal filter design and structurs, RLS, LMS and Adaptive Filters.Though high on content, the topical organization of the book leaves a lot of room for improvement. A logical sequence of topics to be studied by an advanced level DSP student is recommended as follows - 5. Linear Signal Models, 9. Signal Modeling and Parametric Spectral Estimation, 6. Optimum Linear Filters, 7. Algorithms and Structures for Optimum Linear Filters, 10. Adaptive Filters, 8. Least Squares Filtering and Prediction, 11. Array Processing. You may have to keep skipping advanced topics towards the end of a chapter, only to come back later after having gone through related background material in other chapters. In this respect, this volume is indeed inconvenient.However, the authors have more than made up for all its faults with the depth of content, and also the breadth. Assuming that this book is meant for an advanced reader, it is very much self contained, from the ground up, barring a few minor low-level details, which the authors have assumed prior knowledge of.Chapters 11 and 12 essentially deal with very specialized applications for Radar Engineers and people dealing with esoteric math involving Signal Processing techniques - the case in point are the topics on Blind Deconvolution and Unsupervised Adaptive Filtering.The authors have also provided some rudimentary background information on Holor algebra (matrix and vector algebra esp.)I would recommend the reader to keep a more basic text on Mathematical methods for Signal Processing as a cross reference while using this book. A case in point is Mathematical Methods and Algorithms for Signal Processing, by Todd K. Moon and Wynn C. Sterling.

The book is well written, and it is a great reference book for anyone interested in Statistical signal processing and MIMO systems.

I buy this book about 3 years ago (2000).My aim was to get a better understanding on statistical dsp.I got the lecture on advanced dsp on my master degree. I must confess that for me this is not an easy subject to master. Therefore a clear and well explained book on this subject is a very important for me.But I was dissapointed when I got this book!Yes, it is broad of coverage, but the content is not focuss.The connection between previous and next parts of discussion and chapters mostly does not show a clear link.Yes, it is full of facts, but I need more than bulk of facts: THE WAY OF THINKING, why we do and why we don't do.It didn't help me to master the subject.For the reader who want an easy to read and clear in explaination as well as good reasoning and examples, I would suggest to go for another book such as Steven M Kay (Volume 1, Estimation Theory). For me this is a lot better investment of time and money!.Thank you for reading my review.

良い点・SASP TOOLBOXというツールボックスが別途ダウンロード出来るようになっており、アルゴリズムと数式を一挙に理解出来る。・pdfで章末問題の解答例がダウンロード出来るので、より深く理解出来るように配慮されている。・図が豊富で、アルゴリズム説明が豊富である。改良して欲しい点・文章が回りくどい。もっと簡潔に表現して欲しい。
