Course Objectives •Understand how analog signals are represented by their discrete-time samples, and in what ways digital filtering is equivalent to analog filtering. •Master the representation of discrete-time signals in the frequency domain, using the notions of z-transform, discrete-time Fourier transform and discrete Fourier transform (DFT). •Learn the basic forms of FIR and IIR filters, and how to design filters with desired frequency responses. •Understand the implementation of the DFT in terms of the FFT, as well as some of its applications (computation of convolution sums, spectral analysis)
Course Learning Outcomes The students who succeeded in this course;
  • Ability to understand sampling in both time and frequency and its effect on signals and their information content
  • Ability to understand how sampling rate conversion affects the spectrum of signals
  • Ability to take the Z-transform of a LTI system
  • Ability to understand the relationship between poles, zeros, and stability
  • Ability to understand frequency transformations and bilinear transformation for mapping analog prototype filter designs to digital filter designs
  • Ability to design digital FIR and IIR filters
  • Ability to use Matlab to analyze and design discrete-time systems
  • Ability to complete a term project
Course Content Signals and signal processing, discrete-time signals and systems, discrete-time Fourier transform (DTFT) and computation of the DFT, the z-Transform, sampling of continuous-time signals, transform analysis of linear time-invariant (LTI) systems, structures for discrete-time systems, digital filter design techniques, discrete Fourier transform, app
