Content

Signal processing plays an important role in a broad range of engineering systems where sampling, processing, presentation and storage of data is relevant. This course aims to provide a solid understanding of digital signal processing fundamentals and techniques such as the design and analysis of the analog and digital filters and signal transformations between the time and frequency domains.

During this course, the basic knowledge and experience will be built in the following main topics:

  • Discrete-time signals and systems
  • Convolution, modulation, sampling, Fourier and Z- transform
  • Digital filters

Remarks
 

Relationship with research

This course provides students with a series of general analytical tools that are beneficial to a broad range of research from applied engineering and data science to physics/chemistry.  Therefore, the concepts are presented in a way independent of a specific field of research but rather examples are discussed from different domains to demonstrate the potential applications.

Situation of the course in the curriculum

The digital signal processing field has interfaces with electronics (AD-DA converters, amplifiers, filters), electronic designs and measuring systems.

Inflow Relationship with other courses

This course builds on prior knowledge from system theory (e.g. Laplace transform, Fourier transform), mathematics (complex arithmetic), control engineering (e.g. feedback, Z transform) and electronics (electronic components)

Relationship with the professional field

Knowledge from the field of digital signal processing is useful among others in the electronic industry, in the automation sector (filters), multimedia world (signal processing, audio, image), and communication and telephone sectors.
