Best Digital Signal Processing Books
These are some of our favorite DSP books. We categorize them as
Beginner, Intermediate, Advanced, and Classic. (For
the full bibliographic information of each book, see our
Book Reference Page.)
Beginner
By "beginner", we mean introductory books which emphasize an
intuitive understanding of DSP and explain it using a minimum of math.
- Understanding Digital Signal Processing
by Richard G. Lyons. dspGuru Review
- The Scientist and Engineer's and Guide to Digital Signal
Processing by Steven W. Smith.dspGuru Review , Online
text.
- Digital Signal Processing and the Microcontroller by
Dale Grover and John R. (Jack) Deller with illustrations by Jonathan Roth .dspGuru Review .
Intermediate
By "intermediate", we mean books which require a fairly strong
math background and are written for DSP professionals.
- Discrete-Time Signal Processing by A. V. Oppenheim and R. W.
Schafer.
- Digital Signal Processing: Principles, Algorithms, and
Applications by J. G. Proakis and D. G. Manolakis.
- Digital Signal Processing in Communication Systems by Marvin
E. Frerking.
Advanced
By "advanced", we mean comprehensive, high-level reference books
written for those who are already DSP "experts".
- Multirate Digital Signal Processing by R. E. Crochiere and L.
R. Rabiner.
Classic
Here are some classic DSP books which have been widely used--but are now out
of print. (Darn!).
- Theory and Application of Digital Signal Processing by
Rabiner and Gold. A comprehensive, industrial-strength DSP reference book.
- Digital Signal Processing by Alan V. Oppenheim and Ronald W.
Schafer. Another industrial-strength reference. (Replaced by the authors'
Disrete-Time Signal Processing)
- Digital Signal Processing by William D. Stanley. A very
readable book; has a strong treatment of IIR filters.
