Description
This module consists of three parts
Lectures and tutorials on Fourier analysis
Practical Exercise Demonstrating the Use of Signal Analysis in Everyday Objects
Objectives
Master the basic tools for characterizing signals and systems and apply the fundamental methods of signal analysis and processing used in the most common applications (communications, audio and video electronics, automotive, geophysics, acoustics, medical, etc.).
Skills
- describe, represent, and analyze continuous and discrete deterministic signals
- Understand and use the Fourier series and the Fourier transform
- understand and use the standard operator in signal processing: the convolution product,
- understand and know how to apply Parseval's theorem
- transition from the analog domain to the discrete domain
