Course Description:
Students in this seminar will use engineering problem-solving approaches to understand the science and quantify the challenges behind digital signal processing (DSP) systems. This course will expose students to a wide range of scientific methods that can symbolize different types of signals which can be efficiently stored, transmitted, and processed by computers. Students will apply mathematical and scientific concepts to hands-on projects with computer programming. This course also includes a series of writing assignments and a comprehensive final research paper. The required background includes proficiency in complex numbers, trigonometry, and logarithms from high school algebra and geometry.
