Digital Filters Theory, Application and Design of Modern Filters

A presentation of the various methods used by engineers to separate signals from noise. As this is mostly done by using a suitable filter, this book focuses on the understanding and design of the different types of such filters, whether discrete or linear, deterministic or stochastic.
While written with the practitioner in mind, the text equally serves as a textbook for a graduate course, with around 200 problems and projects available online.
