Description
This module follows on from Digital Signal Processing 1. It develops a step-by-step guide on how to design a digital filter. Methods specifically outlined how to design both FIR and IIR filters. Finally, multirate signal processing is considered should a system need to process data at more than one sampling rate.
Learning Outcomes
On completion of this module the learner will/should be able to;
1.
Develop a framework for digital filter design.
2.
Choose when to use FIR or IIR filters.
3.
Calculate coefficients based on specifications for FIR filter designs.
4.
Convert an analogue filter into an equivalent digital IIR filter.
5.
Design a multirate system to process data at more than one sampling rate.
Teaching and Learning Strategies
A weekly lecture will introduce students to the theory of the module.
Weekly lab assignments will encourage students to apply the theory to practical applications.
Module Assessment Strategies
A mid-term written exam will take place.
Students will write a written report based on FIR filter design lab assignments.
Students will give a Powerpoint presentation based on IIR filter design lab assignments.
Students will sit an end of term written exam.
Repeat Assessments
A repeat final written exam will take place in Autumn.

Modern coverage of the fundamentals, implementation and applications of digital signal processing techniques from a practical point of view. The past ten years has seen a significant growth in DSP applications throughout all areas of technology and this growth is expected well into the next millennium. This successful textbook covers most aspects of DSP found in undergraduate electrical, electronic or communications engineering courses. Unlike many other texts, it also covers a number of DSP techniques which are of particular relevance to industry such as adaptive filtering and multirate processing. The emphasis throughout the book is on the practical aspects of DSP.

Digital signal processing has progressed rapidly from a specialist research topic to one with practical applications in many disciplines, including branches of engineering and science which involve data acquisition, such as meterology, physics and information systems. This book aims to provide students with an introductory, one-term course in the subject, using a considerable number of computer programmes to illustrate the text. A number of worked examples have been included in order to illustrate and develop important ideas and design techniques. Problems designed to test and consolidate work already undertaken are supplied at the end of each chapter, and selected answers are given at the end of the book.
