This volume develops the theory of multidimensional signal processing where input and output are either scalar or  vector-valued signals. Vector-valued signals are specifically used to model color images. The approach is largely based on lattices. Non-rectangular sampling is very widespread; for example, virtually every camera and display device incorporates non-rectanglular sampling. 

This book is a comprehensive guide to the theory and practice of signal enhancement and array signal processing, including Matlab codes, exercises, and instructor and solution manuals. Written as a course textbook for senior undergraduate and graduate students, it contains a total of 11 chapters, which cover single-channel signal enhancement and multichannel signal enhancement in the time and frequency domains.

Following the successful PCS Auction conducted by the US Federal Communications Commission in 1994, auctions have replaced traditional ways of allocating valuable radio spectrum, a key resource for any mobile telecommunications operator. Spectrum auctions have raised billions of dollars worldwide and have become a role model for market-based approaches in the public and private sectors. The design of spectrum auctions is a central application of game theory and auction theory due to its importance in industry and the theoretical challenges it presents.
