Digital Signal Processing

Digital representation of analog signals. Frequency domain and Z-transforms of digital signals and systems design of digital systems; IIR and FIR filter design techniques, fast Fourier transform algorithms. Sources of error in digital systems. Analysis of noise in digital systems. Prerequisite: knowledge of Fourier analysis techniques and graduate standing, or permission of instructor.

Class description

This course will serve as a general introduction to digital signal processing. Topics will include discrete-time signals and systems, linear time-invariance (LTI), fourier transforms, z-transforms, sampling, aliasing, frequency response and analysis of LTI systems, structures for such systems, FIR and IIR filter design techniques, the discrete Fourier transform, and the FFT.
