Signals and Systems
Course Description
In this course a computational view of signals and systems is implemented and students will acquire basic knowledge necessary in computer engineering, communication, control and electronics. Topics are as follows. Signals as functions. Discrete and continuous time signals. Elementary signal operations. Elementary signals. The four F ourier transforms: CTF S, CTF T, DTF S, DTF T. Fourier transform properties. Sampling and discrete-time signal processing. Discrete time
F ourier transform. Systems as functions. Systems with the memory. Linear and time invariant (LTI) systems. Convolution sum and convolution integral. Response of linear time invariant systems. Transfer functions and frequency response. Laplace and z-transform in LTI system analysis. State-space model. Basic structures for the implementation of LTI systems.
