Aims: This module introduces the students to the fundamental concepts <strong>of</strong> signal<br />
processing:analog <strong>and</strong> digital signals <strong>and</strong> systems, Fourier series, sampling, statistical signal<br />
processing <strong>and</strong> parameter estimation.<br />
Learning objectives: At the end <strong>of</strong> this module students are expected to:<br />
Underst<strong>and</strong> signal sampling <strong>and</strong> reconstruction<br />
Analyse continuous <strong>and</strong> discrete-time signals <strong>and</strong> systems in the time <strong>and</strong> frequency<br />
domain<br />
Underst<strong>and</strong> cocepts <strong>of</strong> autocorrelation, convolution <strong>and</strong> linearity<br />
Underst<strong>and</strong> statistical properties <strong>of</strong> signals<br />
Underst<strong>and</strong> principles <strong>of</strong> parameter estimation in noise<br />
