Consists of three words:
Digital , Signal and Processing
Signal: any (physical or non-physical) quantity that
varies with time, space, or other independent
variable(s)
Digital: a discrete-time and discrete-valued signal, i.e.
digitization involves both sampling and quantization
Processing: operations on the signal

Signals are everywhere and may reflect countless
measurements of some physical quantity such as:
◦ electric voltages
◦ brain signals
◦ heart rates
◦ temperatures
◦ image luminance
◦ investment prices
◦ vehicle speeds
◦ seismic activity
◦ human speech
Various apparatus could be used to acquire signals,
including:
◦ Digital camera → Image
◦ MRI scanner → Activity of the brain
◦ EEG/EMG/EOG electrodes → Physiological signals
◦ Voice recorder → Audio signal

Continuous-time signals are signals defined at each
value of independent variable(s).
They have values in a continuous interval (a,b) that
could extend from -∞ to ∞.
Discrete-time signals are defined only at specific values
of independent variable(s).
Discrete-time signals are represented mathematically
by a sequence of real or complex numbers.

Periodic sampling
Both continuous and discrete-time signals can take a finite
(discrete) or infinite (continuous) range.
For a signal to be called digital, it must be discrete-time and
discrete-range, i.e. digitization involves both sampling and
quantization.
Signals could be deterministic, with an explicit
mathematical description, a table or a well-defined rule.
All past, present, and future signal values are precisely
known with no uncertainty:
s1(t) =at S2(x,y)=ax+bxy+cy2
In contrast, for random signals the functional relationship is
unknown.
Advantages Limitations
Much faster
Easier to adapt
Applications include speech generation / speech recognition
Speech recognition: DSP generally approaches the problem of
voice recognition in two steps: feature extraction followed by
feature matching.

A common method of obtaining information about a
remote object is to bounce a wave off of it.
Applications include radar and sonar.
DSP can be used for filtering and compressing the data.

Pattern recognition is a research area that is closely
related to digital signal processing.
Definition: “the act of taking in raw data and taking an
action based on the category of the data”.
Pattern recognition
classifies data based on
either a priori knowledge
or on statistical information
extracted from the patterns.

The “Biometrics” field
focuses on methods for
uniquely identifying
humans using one or more
of their intrinsic physical
or behavioural traits.
Examples include using
face, voice, fingerprints,
iris, handwriting or the
method of walking.

between a brain and a
computer via measurements
associated with brain
activity.
• No muscle motion is
involved (e.g., eye
movement).
