 Decent lab style book, lacking in structure, format, and ease of use June 27, 2007
This book is a requirement for a DSP class that I am taking. However, I feel that this book is not meant as a learning guide on DSP but more as a hands-on type lab manual. Any professors out there looking to use this book as a staple to the "classroom" side of a Digital Signal Processing should reconsider and think about using it for the "lab" portion of the class.
The instructions for going through each example, step-by-step is rather cumbersome because of the lack of structure (i.e. Step 1, Step 2, but rather in paragraph form). Additionally, each example builds on the last which makes it very cumbersome in adding all of the programs. For instance, in Chapter 2, Example 2.4 requires that you use the same support files as in Example 2.3. Example 2.3 refers you to use the same support files as in Example 2.2. Example 2.2 refers you to Example 2.1 and 1.1 which also refers you to other files. You will spend nearly a half hour trying to figure out which programs to you use. The layout and format of this book make it quite inefficient, but once you learn to decipher it, it is a decent "lab" style book.
 A good applications book May 2, 2004
6 out of 7 found this review helpful
As an engineer with digital design experience but little DSP application experience, I found this book to be very helpful in understanding and applying everyday DSP algorithms. The book is basically a digest containing many C coded examples of realtime DSP designs including filters, tone generators, FFTs and other common DSP routines. They are easy to implement (all scipts are included on the accompanied CD) and are also fun to play with.
Assuming you have the TMS320C6711 DSK with code composer studio(I got mine on ebay for $100), you will be realizing the designs within minutes after first opening the text.
This book is not a first course in DSP. It helps to know a little about the theory (signals and systems and/or a dsp course) before diving into this text.
In conclusion, if you know a little about DSP but have no experience in applying it, I highly recommend this text.
Best book for DSP hands-on March 25, 2004

If you are looking for a book to learn DSP hands-on, this is it. This is a DSP application tool that "brings to life" all that DSP theory and what to do with it.

I am the author of this book and wanted to respond to the comments by the reader from NH. This book is not about the C6x DSK. Rather, as the title implies, it is on "DSP Applications". The book is "using C and the TMS320C6x DSK" to discuss various applications of DSP, using dozens of illustrative examples with the C6x DSK. Furthermore, the book is not meant to be primarily on the theoretical aspects of DSP. There are many fine texts on theoretical DSP. Again, as stated in the title, the intent of the book is to emphasize the applications of DSP using the C6x DSK as a medium to illustrate. I hope this helps any future readers considering my book.
An opinion of a DSP Lab Instructor November 12, 2002
5 out of 6 found this review helpful
It is a interesting book that allows students and DSP and professionals to obtain a quick satate of the art vision of TI DSP techonology. Easy to read and understand, it has good examples that I have been able to verify in the DSP Lab course I conduct. I strongly recommend this book for people that wish to advance quickly in this area and in it's applications. I would like the aurthor to consider writing similar books on DSP applications for control engineering with TI DSPs.
