DIGT07008 2019 Digital Signal Processing 301
An introductory course in Digital Signal Processing, covering the use of Statistics/Probability and Noise, ADC and DAC, Sampling Theory, Linear Systems, Convolution and the Discrete Fourier Transform.
The subject is heavily geared towards the practical implementation of DSP in software.
Learning Outcomes
On completion of this module the learner will/should be able to;
Use statistical methods to characterise signals and the processes that generate them
Identify if a given system is linear and the techniques this allows us to perform.
Perform the operation of convolution on given signals and systems.
Perform a Discrete Fourier Transform on digital data.
Communicate in written form, experiments carried out on digital data.
Teaching and Learning Strategies
The theory lectures will be split into a theory element and then problem examples that the students will attempt with the assistance of the lecturer.
The practical exercises/experiments will be carried out by the students in the laboratory or at home, they will then be assessed on their reporting of these experiments.
Module Assessment Strategies
A written mid-term assessment will be used.
Practical assignments with written report submission.
Final Written exam.
Repeat Assessments
A repeat written exam will be available during the repeat exam schedule.
Students may also be asked to re-submit reports on experimental work carried out during the year.
Indicative Syllabus
Introduction to DSP.
Statistics, Probability and Noise.
Analogue I/O, ADC & DAC, Sampling Theorem, Aliasing, anti-aliasing filtering.
Linear Systems,
Convolution, Impulse Response, Impulse Decomposition, Correlation.
Introduction to the Discrete Fourier Transform
