Syllabus/achievement requirements

D. H. Johnson and D. E. Dudgeon: Array Signal Processing: Concepts and Techniques, 1993. Pentice Hall. ISBN: ISBN-10: 0130485136, ISBN-13: 9780130485137. http://www.prenhall.com/allbooks/ptr_0130485136.html.

Erratum for the text book collected by Sverre Holm. Official errata from Don H. Johnson.

An additional single Erratum: on page 133, the first (not numbered) centered equation, telling how to calculate Z(omega): The summation must also include the sensor weights w_m as a fa ctor to multiply each Y(omega) with.
