Learning Signal & System: Books to Get Started

AI Thread Summary
For those studying signal and systems in electronic engineering, several recommended textbooks include "Signals and Systems" by Oppenheim, Willsky, and Nawab, and "Linear Systems and Signals" by B. P. Lathi, which is praised for its approachable style and practical examples. "Electronic Communications: Principles and Systems" by Stanley & Jeffords and "Signals and Systems using the Web and Matlab" by Kamen and Heck are also suggested, though the latter may be more technically challenging. A solid mathematical foundation, including calculus and differential equations, is advised for better comprehension of the material. Overall, these resources provide a strong starting point for mastering signal and systems concepts.

Assuming you have a basic college math/physics background, you should definitely have a look at Signals and Systems by Oppenheim, Wilksy and Nawab.

Electronic Communications: Principles and Systems, Stanley & Jeffords.

CS
 
Signals and Systems.
Poularikas and Seely.
 
I use "Signals and Systems using the Web and Matlab" by Kamen and Heck. Its quite technically written (for me anyway) but seems to cover a lot of important material.

I highly recommend "Linear Systems and Signals" by B. P. Lathi . The author really talks to you as a student and does not introduce concepts without letting you know where he is going, and he does this in the most down to Earth manner. Furthermore, he has great examples that are related to the material covered in the chapter. I also like the fact that MATLAB code is also introduced. IMHO, this book should be a keeper for anyone studying signals and systems. Lathi along with Oppenheim and you can't go wrong. Of course you should have the necessary mathematical background such as calc I-III, differential equations, and linear algebra. A year of calculus based physics would also be helpful but is not required.
 
Thread 'Weird near-field phenomenon I get in my EM simulation'
I recently made a basic simulation of wire antennas and I am not sure if the near field in my simulation is modeled correctly. One of the things that worry me is the fact that sometimes I see in my simulation "movements" in the near field that seems to be faster than the speed of wave propagation I defined (the speed of light in the simulation). Specifically I see "nodes" of low amplitude in the E field that are quickly "emitted" from the antenna and then slow down as they approach the far...
Hello dear reader, a brief introduction: Some 4 years ago someone started developing health related issues, apparently due to exposure to RF & ELF related frequencies and/or fields (Magnetic). This is currently becoming known as EHS. (Electromagnetic hypersensitivity is a claimed sensitivity to electromagnetic fields, to which adverse symptoms are attributed.) She experiences a deep burning sensation throughout her entire body, leaving her in pain and exhausted after a pulse has occurred...
