Abstract
As the theory of Digital Signal Processing (DSP) is based on its predecessor, Analog Signal Processing (ASP), a study of analog signals and systems is necessary. This chapter handles the representation of analog signals and systems in the time domain and in the frequency domain. Core topics covered are continuous-time convolution, analog transforms (Fourier and Laplace), analog filters, and random signal analysis. It also includes some applications of ASP like signal detection in noise and radar range estimation.
