From the reviews:

"An excellent feature of this book is that it has many examples and applications implemented in MATLAB, as well as numerical exercises with answers, questions and answers at the end of each chapter and thus making the book an ideal choice with minimal mathematical background needed for self-reading and/or adaptation for a course on Random Signals and Processes either at undergraduate level or first year graduate level for students in electrical, mechanical, communication and control engineering. ... an excellent addition to the field ... ."
