Look for it in R2018a.It's kind of true! I learned multirate DSP with polyphase FIRs a few decades ago from this group. Combined with RBJ's Filter cookbook, I've been able to solve 1,001 problems! --------------------------------------- Posted through http://www.DSPRelated.com

Well, if someone finds a really good replacement forum this same group of people, please post back here where you are going so the rest of us can follow you.

Neither are quite the same as usenet and naturally all have different cultures and groups of people.

DSP isn't exactly going away. Quite the opposite. It continues its march deeper and deeper into systems, displacing more analogue elements of them. Steve

The automated tools available allow practitioners to get a lot done without having the depth of knowledge that was typically needed in the past. And those people who do dive in and want and/or need to know a lot have google and the rest of the intarwebs to get their questions answered, ironically probably sometimes by searching comp.dsp history. So, we're dinosaurs. Embrace it. ;)

A design group is more likely to already have DSP design talent. This is especially true if you look at it at the algorithm level. You don't need a specific DSP expert anymore to design an FFT or a Viterbi decoder. (Or, so program managers now believe.) Steve
