Block pulse functions have been studied and applied
extensively in the past fifteen years as a basic set of
functions for signal characterizations in systems science
and control.
Written for staff, students and engineers in industry
interested in digital signal processing for system analysis
and design, this book presents the principles and techniques
ofblock pulse functions in a systematic and uniform manner.
Readers who are interested in using these functions in their
own problems can obtain an overview of the existing methods
and the developing tendency of this area. In comparison with
other basic functions or polynomials, block pulse functions
can lead more easily to recursive computations to solve
concrete problems.
