Infos

This self-contained and user-friendly textbook is designed for a first, one-semester course in statistical signal analysis for a broad audience of students in engineering and the physical sciences. The emphasis throughout is on fundamental concepts and relationships in the statistical theory of stationary random signals, which are explained in a concise, yet rigorous presentation. With abundant practice exercises and thorough explanations, A First Course in Statistics for Signal Analysis is an excellent tool for both teaching students and training laboratory scientists and engineers. Improvements in the second edition include considerably expanded sections, enhanced precision, and more illustrative figures.

Wojbor A. Woyczyski is a Professor in the Department of Statistics and the Director of the Center for Stochastic and Chaotic Processes in Science and Technology at Case Western Reserve University. His research interests include: probability theory, Lévy stochastic processes, random fields and their statistics, nonlinear, stochastic and fractional evolution equations, harmonic and functional analysis, random graphs, statistical physics and hydrodynamics, chaotic dynamics, applications to chemistry, physics, operations research, financial mathematics, medicine, oceanography, and atmospheric physics.

This essentially self-contained, deliberately compact, and user-friendly textbook is designed for a first, one-semester course in statistical signal analysis for a broad audience of students in engineering and the physical sciences. The emphasis throughout is on fundamental concepts and relationships in the statistical theory of stationary random signals, explained in a concise, yet fairly rigorous presentation.New to the Second Edition: many redrawn figures to better illustrate the scale of the quantities represented; revised notation and terminology to better reflect the concepts under discussion; considerably expanded sections with new examples, illustrations, and commentary; addition of more applied exercises; a large appendix containing solutions of selected problems from each of the nine chapters.Developed by the author over the course of many years of classroom use, A First Course in Statistics for Signal Analysis may be used by junior/senior undergraduates or graduate students in electrical, systems, computer, and biomedical engineering, as well as the physical sciences. The work is also an excellent resource of educational and training material for scientists and engineers working in research laboratories.
