Applied Signal Processing: A MATLAB-Based Proof of Concept benefits readers by including the teaching background of experts in various applied signal processing fields and presenting them in a project-oriented framework. Unlike many other MATLAB-based textbooks which only use MATLAB to illustrate theoretical aspects, this book provides fully commented MATLAB code for working proofs-of-concept. The MATLAB code provided on the accompanying online files is the very heart of the material. In addition each chapter offers a functional introduction to the theory required to understand the code as well as a formatted presentation of the contents and outputs of the MATLAB code.
Each chapter exposes how digital signal processing is applied for solving a real engineering problem used in a consumer product. The chapters are organized with a description of the problem in its applicative context and a functional review of the theory related to its solution appearing first. Equations are only used for a precise description of the problem and its final solutions. Then a step-by-step MATLAB-based proof of concept, with full code, graphs, and comments follows. The solutions are simple enough for readers with general signal processing background to understand and they use state-of-the-art signal processing principles. Applied Signal Processing: A MATLAB-Based Proof of Concept is an ideal companion for most signal processing course books. It can be used for preparing student labs and projects.

From the reviews:
"In this book, Dutoit ... provide readers with practical application of the theory and working MATLAB code for the algorithms being presented, thus allowing them to actually learn the theory by experimenting with real data using the supplied code that is known to be correct and working. This mode of learning allows one to actually see the effects and transformation power of the algorithms ... presented in the text. ... Summing Up: Highly recommended. Upper-division undergraduate through professional collections." (J. Y. Cheung, Choice, Vol. 47 (2), October, 2009)
