Theme 7 - topics for the DSP-exam (1)

Signals (SP01 and SP02):


discrete signal & periodic spectrum
[periodic signal & discrete spectrum Fourier Series]
Shannons sampling theorem; aliasing effect
Systems (SP03 and SP04):
linearity / time-invariance / causality / stability
frequency spectrum of a composed signal (pulse or wave): computation strategy;
apply Fourier Transform properties & Fourier Transform pairs
( use tables 5.1 / 5.2 from Schaums Outline-book Signals & Systems)
Digital Filters (SP05):
digital filter analysis:
impulse response / difference equation
transfer function poles & zeros
frequency response (Bode diagrams)
block schematic
digital filter types:
N-th order FIR
1st & 2nd order IIR
FIR linear phase
serial / parallel combinations of them

The set of slides named Prerequisites (SP00) provides you with the mathematics that is essential for the
DA- and DSP-lectures.
In the same set of slides:
- on slide 3, you will find an overview of the notations that appear in textbooks and lectures;
- on slide 4, you will find an overview of keywords and topics treated in the DA- and DSP-lectures.

Theme 7 - exercises for the DSP-exam (2)

1.
In each set of DSP lecture slides, at the bottom of the Contents-page (mostly page 3), you can find a
reference to the Paragraphs and the Solved Problems in the Schaums Outline books Signals and Systems
(H.P. Hsu, ed.1995) and Digital Signal Processing (M.H. Hayes, ed.1999).
