Beginner in DSP and need guidance on how to start

[Rahul Aggarwal]

Hello everyone,

I am Rahul Aggarwal, an engineering student. I am interested in learning dsp programming and i want to know where should i start from.
please recommended me the books or link to the datasheets for basics of dsp. Please tell me the right approach to start.

THANKS in advance.

MATLAB/Simulink provides one of the best simulation platforms for the study, development and design of DSP systems.

Analyze signals, develop algorithms, and design DSP systems

The MATLAB/Simulink also offers the ability to translate these developed DSP algorithms to Embedded C Code for testing and verification on TI DSPs using Code Composer Studio:

Or convert the developed algorithms to HDL for implementation on various FPGA platforms:





There are numerous texts available covering the above topics, if you would like specific recommendations, just post your areas of interest.

If you want to learn DSP then you should go for
The Scientist and Engineer's Guide to Digital Signal Processing by Steven W Smith.

If you want to simulate those then you should try MATLAB. If you want to learn matlab see some tutorials in the net and also see youtube. There are many videos in you tube. If you have doubts regarding maltab programs you can ask your doubts in Matlab Central. There are many files for matlab programs at Matlab Central. Check out that forum
