基本説明
Basic knowledge for all physicists, astronomers, engineers involved in detection techniques; Discusses and compares various signal processing techniques both qualitatively and quantitatively; and more.
Full Description
Thewritingofthisbookhasbeeninspiredbytheexperienceofteachinga courseonDetectionandSignalProcessingtograduatestudentsoveraperiod ofmanyyears. Itwasstrikingthatstudentswerenotonlyfascinatedbythe variousdetectionprinciplesandtechnicalperformancesofpracticalsystems, butalsobytheprofessionalismoftheinvolved typical physicalengine- ing.
