Topic outline

  • General description

    The main objective of this course is to introduce the basic concepts and principles of signal processing and systems analysis. It focuses on digital signals, types, its acquisition methods, digitization and discrete systems due the important role played by the computer in engineering applications and in our daily life. In this course we focus on the types and characteristics of signals and systems in the digital signal processing system, its relation to time and frequency, its modeling mechanism, and its mathematical representation using discrete differential equations, then, we introduce the basic signal processing operations, sampling theorem and its applications, Fourier series, Fourier transform and its application, Laplace and Z transform, Transformation function , digital filters and its realization methods. At the end of the course, a number of digital signal processing applications will be presented as speech and sound processing, image and communication processing as well as some other practical applications of signal processing using MATLAB
