Not offered until 2000

4 points · 26 lecture hours, 26 laboratory/tutorial hours · First semester · Clayton · Prerequisite: ECE2101 · Corequisite: MAT3901

Objectives The student is expected to acquire fundamental skills in the analysis and processing of digital and continuous-time signals, and to develop basic knowledge of discrete-time and continuous-time systems.

Synopsis Introduction to systems, networks and signals. Two-port description of networks: impedance, admittance, transmission, hybrid and scattering matrices. Scattering parameters: transmittance, reflectance, maximally-flat filters. Digital signals and systems: sequences, discrete-time systems, signal flow graph. Z-transform and its properties. System function in z-domain. State-space formulation. Signal analysis by Fourier Transforms: convolution integral, properties of Fourier transforms, time-limited signal, periodic waveform and Fourier Series, bandlimited signal and Sampling Theorem, the discrete-time Fourier Transform, the Discrete Fourier Transform, Fast Fourier Transform algorithm.
