Course objectives
To introduce the fundamentals of digital signal processing and related applications. This course will cover linear system analysis, z-transform, discrete Fourier transform (DFT) and its applications, FFT algorithms, digital filter (FIR and IIR) design and multi-rate signal processing.
Learning outcomes
Students will:
understand principles of digital signal processing

be able to design algorithms to process signals

understand the way Fourier transformation is used to process signals.

Teaching methods
During the semester, students are required to do tasks involving the use of Matlab software package. The course concludes with a final test.
Assessment methods
Final examination consists of 3 parts:
1) defense of the project - implementation of the design from laboratory lessons and discussion about protocol,
2) written test - logical algebra, design of the digital circuits and analysis of the digital circuits,
3) oral exam - theoretical tools for design of the digital circuits.
