COURSE DESCRIPTION
A study of the general concepts, principles and
applications of digital signal processing. Focus is
on the characterization of signals and systems in
time and frequency domains. Mathematical tools
such as z-transform and Fourier analysis is
discussed for such purpose.

Prerequisite:
-Probability and statistics
-Advanced Engineering Mathematics

GENERAL OBJECTIVES

able to:
1. Explain the concept involving classification,
characteristics and transformation of signals.
2. Represent mathematically the signals in terms
of differential equations and Fourier analysis.
3. Know the different types of digital filter design.
