DIGITAL Signal PROCESSING DIGITAL SIGNAL PROCESSING refers to manipulating analog information‚ such as sound or photographs that has been converted into a digital form. DSP also implies the use of a data compression technique. DSP refers to various techniques for improving the accuracy and reliability of digital communications. The theory behind DSP is quite complex. Basically‚ DSP works by clarifying‚ or standardizing‚ the levels or states of a digital signal. ADSP circuit is able to differentiate

Million Death Quake Review When Haiti was struck by an earthquake in 2010 the impacts were disastrous. With an official estimate of 316‚000 deaths‚ it is the second most destructive earthquake in recorded human history. Over 97‚000 houses were destroyed and more than 188‚000 damaged. However‚ could this Earthquake have been predicted and some‚ if not all‚ of the 316‚000 deaths prevented? Are we able to predict‚ or even prevent‚ the next large earthquake that is bound to rock our planet to the core
