Digital signal processing (DSP) is largely concerned
with the application of Fourier and
z-transform techniques to a wide variety of
scientific and engineering problems. Since it
involves a transformation of sampled data into
the discrete frequency domain, the methods
find use in both signal analysis and signal processing.
Although DSP is very much a technique
of the late 20th century, it is based on
Nyquist’s sampling theorem, which dates back
to 1928. Although DSP techniques are highly
mathematical, this new six-part course will be
based on worked-out examples and experiments.
For these, only a PC with soundcard
and CD-ROM drive are necessary.
