Basics of Signal Processing

Undergraduate course, ISTR Lyon, D.E. Audioprothésiste, 2019-2022

This module aims to provide students with the theoretical basis of signal processing (discrete/continuous signals, fourier transform, sampling, convolution, correlation).

Structure

The module is structured on lectures, as well as on theoretical and practical work.
The practical work covers the basics of digital signal processing (signal modeling, sampling, quantization, Fourier transform calculation, convolution, correlation) and the use of Matlab/Octave to carry out the practical work.

During the three years of teaching, I was in charge of setting up evaluation exams and correcting papers in this subject.

Content:

  • First Session :
    • Discovery of the Octave/MATLAB software,
    • First applications of signal processing.
  • Second Session :
    • Generate a signal with given characteristics in Octave/MATAB,
    • Study convolution and correlation using the two Octave programs provided.
  • Third Session :
    • Study the influence of the different parameters involved in the generation of a signal as well as the frequency representation of signals.
