Signals and systems analysis

Back to Syllabus

Description
Every engineering graduate must have knowledge and mastery of the fundamental principles on which disciplines such as analog and digital communications, signal and image processing, or acoustics are based, among others. The objective of the subject is to give an introductory and fundamental vision of the mathematical tools that allow analyzing analog and digital signals in the temporal and frequency domains, carrying out the conversion from the analog world to the digital one, as well as modeling and representing data processing systems. the signal in the analog and digital domains.

Objectives

Students acquire the knowledge and develop the skills indicated below:
1. Understand the concepts of signal and system.
2. Understand the mathematical tools that allow processing signals in the time domain.
3. Understand the processes to convert an analog signal into digital.
4. Understand and know how to apply the mathematical tools that allow transforming a signal, analog or digital, into the frequency domain.

Contents

1. Representation of sinusoidal signals.
2. Fourier series.
3. Fourier transform.
4. Unit impulse function.
5. The convolution.
6. Invariant linear systems.
7. Digitization.
8. Characterization of discrete systems.
9. Fourier analysis for discrete signals: TFSD and DFT.
10. Z transform.

Methodology

The usual dynamics of each class will consist of a combination of theoretical explanations, normally followed by carrying out exercises that exemplify what has just been explained.
In addition, sessions will be dedicated to the contextualization of the contents in a practical framework and to carrying out demonstrations, analyzes and visualizations of theoretical concepts using scripts and Matlab functions developed by the teaching staff with this objective.
