aloha y'all!

i am looking for a good, solid, well written book on digital signal processing. i passed a two-semester course for my bachelors and am well acquainted with the basics and theory (i should, at least) and am now looking for a resource to look up specific stuff. i've looked into the topic and there is a plethora of books, many of them specific to some application(s), some field, some technology and/or language implementation and many of them not that well written (e.g. books consisting of single papers written by different authors).

ideal would be a technology-agnostic textbook including exercises that allows to dive into the various depths of the field at will.

what is your DSP "bible", reference book, go-to resource? any and all pointers are welcome, i'll definitifely look 'em up!

Really depends what you are into. For general concepts, Discrete-Time Signal Processing by Oppenheim and Discrete Signal Prcessing by Proakis are standard textbooks.

If you're interested in communication or radar systems, array signal processing is very closely linked with discrete signal processing but with more linear algebra and statistical concepts. Optimum Array Processing by Van Trees is a great textbook for this.

Thanks! I'll check those out and let you know.

Did you find all of them well written or did you jusr have to study them and were ok with that fact?

I used the textbook as Oppenheim in my graduate DSP course, with the textbook by Proakis as a secondary reference. I don't really love the Oppenheim book. I'm not super familiar with the Proakis DSP book as a result, but I think his textbooks on Communication Systems and Digital Communications are very well written. The Van Trees I find really well written and I really like (however the topic is also most interesting to me). All of them require you to study them though, I'm not sure what you mean by that.
