'Signal to Noise does not entertain. It scratches, it provokes, it frightens. It tells you things you don't want to know but then twists you inside out by saying, look harder and see the poignance, th
Carla Sinclair is one of the most powerful -- and coolest -- women in cyberspace. Doyenne of the Net Chick Clubhouse website, she's appeared in Esquire's "Women We Love" and Playboy's "Women of Cybers
Noise or pseudo-noise radar can identify the otherwise unknown range and velocity of a target, explains Kulpa (Warsaw U. of Technology), but requires much more signal processing than other forms of ra
Advances in methods of gear design and the possibility of predicting the sound pressure level and life time of gearboxes and perfect instrumentation of test stands allows for the production of a new g
Digital signal processing plays a central role in the development of modern communication and information processing systems. The theory and application of signal processing is concerned with the iden
By providing all the basic knowledge needed to assess how useful active noise control will be for a given problem, this book assists in the designing, setting up, and tuning of an active noise-control
This book presents an algorithm for the detection of an orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) signal in a cognitive radio context by means of a joint and iterative channel and noise estima
As demand for on-chip functionalities and requirements for low power operation continue to increase as a result of the emergence in mobile, wearable and internet-of-things (IoT) products, 3D/2.5D have
The book reports modeling and simulation techniques for substrate noise coupling effects in RFICs and introduces isolation structures and design guides to mitigate such effects with the ultimate goal
The Second Edition is an updated revision to the authors highly successful and widely used introduction to the principles and application of the statistical theory of signal detection. This book empha
