Discussion Overview

The discussion revolves around finding suitable books for understanding network theory, particularly focusing on complex exponentials and their physical interpretation. Participants express a need for resources that clarify these concepts, especially for those who may struggle with the mathematical aspects.

Discussion Character

  • Exploratory, Conceptual clarification, Homework-related

Main Points Raised

  • One participant requests recommendations for books that explain network theory and complex exponentials, expressing difficulty with the term "s" and the concept of ejwt.
  • Another participant suggests "Lathi - Signals and Systems," noting that it includes chapters on complex numbers and sinusoids, which may be helpful.
  • The first participant expresses concern that Lathi's book may focus too much on the mathematical perspective and seeks resources that provide a physical interpretation of the concepts.

Areas of Agreement / Disagreement

Participants do not reach a consensus on a specific book that meets the request for both mathematical and physical interpretations of complex exponentials. Multiple viewpoints regarding the adequacy of suggested resources remain.

Contextual Notes

There is an expressed need for a balance between mathematical rigor and physical interpretation, which may not be fully addressed by the suggested resources.

guys i have a humble request
i really need a very good to understand network theory

more specifically i need a book that has a very good explanation of the complex exponentials
the usage of the term "s" ejwt etc has really given me headache
i really want to understand this concept especially its physical interpretation i mean ejwt is imaginary right ? how can it be used
i am willing to read any maths book for understanding complex numbers from beginning if required
pleasez help

can somebody please reply
 
Lathi - Signals and Systems.

Any intro EE book or signals book should have a chapter [ at least] on signals, as well as a review chapter on complex numbers. Lathi's book has a beginning chapter on both complex numbers and sinusoids.

Google is also your [free] friend in information gathering. I am sure there is a wealth of freely available information.
 
thanks for the reply
i will take a look at it but i think lathi will from a mathematical point if view
i want something with some physical interpretation
