Programming Symbian OS is a key skill for mass market phone application development. Whether you are developing a services for shipping mobile phones, or involved in pre-market mobile phone development, this book will help you unde fundamental theory behind developing Symbian OS C++ code for constrained devices.
Fourier transforms are used widely, and are of particular value in the analysis of single functions and combinations of functions found in radar and signal processing. Still, many problems that could have been tackled by using Fourier transforms may have gone unsolved because they require integration that is difficult and tedious. Now you can solve...
“a comprehensive overview of both DDS architectures and fractional-N frequency synthesizers.” Microwave Journal said this book “is aimed specifically at practical designers and utilizes many intuitive explanations and design examples.” Microwaves & RF magazine
This self-contained introduction discusses the evolution of the notion of coherent states, from the early works of Schr?dinger to the most recent advances, including signal analysis. An integrated and modern approach to the utility of coherent states in many different branches of physics, it strikes a balance between mathematical and physical...
Biological Techniques is a series of volumes aimed at introducing to a wide audience the latest advances in methodology. The pitfalls and problems of new techniques are given due consideration, as are those small but vital details not always explicit in the methods sections of journal papers.
This book provides insight into the practical design of V.L.S.I. circuits. It is aimed at novice V.L.S.I. designers and other enthusiasts who would like to understand V.L.S.I. design flows. Coverage includes key concepts in C.M.O.S. digital design, design of D.S.P. and communication blocks on F.P.G.A.s, A.S.I.C. front end and physical design,...
Recently, criterion functions based on information theoretic measures (entropy, mutual information, information divergence) have attracted attention and become an emerging area of study in signal processing and system identification domain. This book presents a systematic framework for system identification and information processing,...
"A practical guide to using the TMS320C31 DSP Starter Kit
With applications and demand for high-performing digital signal processors expanding rapidly, it is becoming increasingly important for today's students and practicing engineers to master real-time digital signal processing (DSP) techniques.
G protein coupled receptors (GPCRs) comprise an important protein family, which is involved in signal transduction in the cell. Besides that a large number of drugs, available on market, address GPCRs. For an efficient and improved development of appropriate drugs, molecular modelling of GPCRs is – in order to understand the...
Based upon the research they have conducted over the past decade in the field of denoising processes for medical ultrasonic imaging, in this book, the authors systematically present despeckling methods for medical ultrasonic images. Firstly, the respective methods are reviewed and divided into five categories. Secondly, after introducing some...
