Learning outcomes
On completion of the course, the student should be able to:
- explain the basic theory for discrete- and continuous time signals and systems, and how they interact in the time- and the frequency domain,
- analyse and synthesise simple analogue systems,
- explain the basic principles for sampling of continuous time signals, the sampling theorem, and signal reconstruction,
- analyse and synthesise simple digital filters.
Content
Fourier-, Laplace- and z-transformation of discrete- and continuous time signals and systems. The sampling theorem. The concepts of poles and zeros. Stability and causality. Bode plots. Analysis and synthesis of analogue and digital filters. Application examples.
Instruction
Lectures, problem solving sessions.
Assessment
Written examination (4 credits) oral and written examination of home work assignment (1 credit).
If there are special reasons for doing so, an examiner may make an exception from the method of assessment indicated and allow a student to be assessed by another method. An example of special reasons might be a certificate regarding special pedagogical support from the disability coordinator of the university.
