Professor De Boer's list of
TEXTBOOK ERRATA
(Last update: 11/14/06)
---------------
Proakis and Manolakis
Digital Signal Processing Principles,
Algorithms, and Applications, 3rd Edition
Prentice Hall, 1996.
(Some of these errata may have been fixed in later printings.)
p 42, Problem 1.14. Change the last question in the problem
from "What is the maximum frequency that can be present in
the resulting digital seismic signal?" to "What is the
folding frequency of this sampling process?" (The
answer to the original question is simply 1/2. Not a very
interesting problem. The answer key reveals that the new
question was the author's intent.) (Posted 1/19/06)
p 64, Fig 2.2.4(d). The "+" sign should be a "x" sign.
p 176, Fig. 3.8. There should be no zero at z = a. (White out
the zero located on the postive real axis.)
p 152, Example 3.1.1. In the given problem statement, if an
arrow is not shown to mark sample number zero, then the
first sample in the list is sample number zero. (This is
not errata. This standard notation is defineed on page
44 of this text.)
p 268, Equation on second line of the page. Change the last
exponent from "j(w-pi/2)" to "j(w-pi)/2".
p 305, Table 4.6 In the expression for x(n) that is one panel
down in the left column, replace the second instance of
"|n| <= L" with "|n| > L".
p 531, In the equation closest to the center of the page, replace
" - 12.90" with " + 12.90" in the first numerator.
p 532, Figure 7.22(b). Change the -12.9 coefficient to +12.9.
