Concepts and circuits for signal processing

Objectives

At the end of this module, the student will have understood and be able to explain (main concepts) :
- the main concepts, mathematical methods and tools used for signal processing
- the main concepts of modern analog electronics encountered in signal processing
as well as for generating deterministic signals
The student will be able to:
- decompose periodic signals into Fourier series
- determine the spectrum of deterministic signals
- calculate the transfer function of a continuous, invariant linear filter and calculate
the output signal of that filter for a given input
- design and build either a wide-band or selective amplifier stage
using an operational amplifier
- design an analog multiplier stage as well as the adequate passive output filter which is
needed
- design and realise a basic signal generator using operational amplifiers.

Needed prerequisite

Analysis and algebra / Electrokinetics

Form of assessment

The evaluation of outcome prior learning is made as a continuous training during the semester. According ot the teaching, the assessment will be different: as a written exam, an oral exam, a record, a written report, peers review...
