Foundations

March 28, 2019 by 3200 Creative

The Signal Processing Foundations series of 16 lessons begins with the philosophy of the field. Next you will discover the basic notation and terminology. Signal Processing Foundations also introduces methods for describing the interaction between signals and signal-processing systems.  Understanding the philosophy of signal processing will help you later follow the context and rationale for different signal […]

Sampling and Reconstruction

March 22, 2019 by 3200 Creative

All signals in the physical world, e.g., light, sound, seismic waves, and so on, have continuous independent variables.  These signals must be sampled to convert them to a sequence of numerical values prior to computer-based signal processing. The Sampling and Reconstruction series of 15 lessons introduces you to the requirements on sampling in order to […]

The DFT and Applications

March 19, 2019 by 3200 Creative

The discrete Fourier transform or DFT is the frequency domain workhorse of signal processing. It is the only Fourier representation that can be evaluated with a computer. In this series of 13 lessons you will learn how the DFT is related to the discrete-time Fourier transform, and how the DFT can be used to approximate […]

The Z-Transform

March 16, 2019 by 3200 Creative

The -transform is an important signal-processing tool for analyzing the interaction between signals and systems. A significant advantage of the -transform over the discrete-time Fourier transform is that the -transform exists for many signals that do not have a discrete-time Fourier transform. Thus, it is a more general analysis tool. In this series of 13 […]
