Signal Processing and Linear Systems

by B.P. Lathi, R.A. Green (Contributor)

This second edition contains much of the content of Linear Systems and Signals, Third Edition, by the same authors, with added chapters on analog and digital filters and digital signal processing, plus additional applications to communications and controls. Unlike Linear Systems & Signals 3e, in this book the Laplace transform follows Fourier. This book contains enough material on discrete-time systems to be used in a traditional course in Signals and Systems and in an introductory course in Digital Signal Processing.

One of my favorite undergrad books. The humorous comic strips are priceless.

this textbook saved my ass in TWO classes

Lathi's writing is extremely clear and, at times, funny. I loved some of the historical background he added, especially concerning Heaviside. He begins with a very helpful review of partial fraction expansion and linear algebra, two mathematical domains one needs to be facile in to absorb the remainder of the book. The book then covers a lot of ground. One could look at the book as divided into two major sections: I-Continuous-Time (Chapters 1-7) signals and systems, development of continuous Fourier/Laplace, sampling, analog filters (pole-zero placement, Butterworth, Chebyshev, etc.), and control systems. II-Discrete-Time (Chapters 8-13) Fourier, z-transform, digital filters, and space-state analysis). It's a wonderful resource for developing a mental throughline for the relationship between signals/systems, digital signal processing, and controls.

for some, it's out of the earth diabolical topic(continuous and discrete time signals and linear systems), cumbersome to say the least ..
many books have been written in this field, however nothing can match this one, for many of them (Alan V. Oppenheim's famous go-to standard textbook and others) really either miss the rigor math or really miss the conceptual side and the crystal clear explanation that are the key feature of this book.
moreover, the writer approach in his addressing of the topic along with the way he proses is priceless. enjoyable reading and solid understanding 10/10

Desi Authors make it simpler to understand technical concepts. Western authors for some reason lack something.
