Course overview
This course provides students with fundamental knowledge to manipulate discrete-time (DT) signals, analyse DT systems and design appropriate DT solutions to common engineering problems. The topics include DT signals and systems, essential analytical and computational tools to design and implement DT linear, time-invariant (LTI) systems. These skills will be developed concurrently in time and transform (z and Fourier) domains. This course will provide students with a foundation to pursue more advanced studies in areas including, but not limited to control, telecommunications, biomedical engineering and machine learning.
- Introduction to DSP, DT Signals and Systems
- Transform domain DT Signals and Systems
- Digital Filter Design
Course learning outcomes
- Describe the characteristics and transformations of discrete-time (DT) signals analytically
- Analyse DT linear time-invariant systems using time and transform (Fourier and z-) domain techniques
- Manipulate signals using analytical techniques and write algorithms to implement DT LTI systems with common software packages
- Design and analyse digital filters using various design methods
