1D and 2D Analog, Discrete, and Digital Signal Processing

p { text-align: justify; } The monograph entitled ‘1D and 2D Analog, Discrete, and Digital Processing’ by Z. Smékal and J. Sklenář describes the properties and relationships of analogue, discrete and digital signal processing and analogue, discrete and digital systems. The authors do not aim to describe in detail all methods, algorithms and properties of the relationships between signals and systems, but rather to provide an overview of the most commonly used methods and to outline the connections between signal processing methods and systems so that the reader gains a comprehensive understanding. Further details can then be found in the recommended reading list. The book is not intended for complete beginners. If read by undergraduate students, they will probably need to consult appropriate sources from time to time to clarify certain concepts used in the book. It is suitable for master’s and doctoral students, as well as others interested in the subject from various scientific disciplines, provided they already have a grasp of the basic concepts of circuit theory and signal theory, and, above all, a firm grasp of the fundamentals of differential and integral calculus, including the basics of functions of a complex variable. The authors do not delve into endless theorising; instead, they strive to explain the essence of the subject concisely and clearly, illustrating the theory with carefully selected practical examples involving specific figures. This enables readers to clarify any ambiguities that may easily arise when studying advanced theory. The authors adhere to a modern approach, using terminology found in leading textbooks. The book includes the usual appendices, such as a table of contents, a list of symbols, a list of references and an index. The examples provided are accompanied by short illustrative programmes.
