Overview

This module is focused on the study of digital signal processing and control of continuous systems and discrete time systems. The digital signal part includes Fourier transform, IIR Filters and FIR Filters. The control part continues the study of classical control of continuous system as well as digital control. There is a strong emphasis on design and evaluation.

Learning outcomes

1. Demonstrate a systematic understanding of key aspects of digital transforms, and sampling for conversion between analogue and digital signals.
2. Apply the methods and techniques of digital FIR and IIR Filter implementation and to extend their knowledge of real-world applications of Digital Signal Processing.
3. Apply the methods and techniques of classical feedback & digital feedback to control systems.
4. Demonstrate a systematic understanding of key aspects of controller design and system analysis and the application of control theory in real life engineering systems.
