digital signal processing (DSP) depends on your goals and background. Why is this?
DSP includes many different topics, such as:
digital filters
analysis of signals and systems (especially in terms of frequency)
synthesis of signals
detection of signals and estimation of signal and system parameters
data compression
and on and on ...
DSP is the intersection of a number of different areas of study:
mathematics
electrical engineering
signals and systems
analog circuit theory
computer architecture, (and more)
probability and statistics
computer programming
and others
Implementing DSP, especially in real-time, is generally treated separately from the theory, so much so it can seem like a field entirely separate from DSP.
