Digital Signalprocessing and Mathematics 2 (Fall 2003)

Course code : EDSM2-U01
ECTS Credits : 10 Status : Compulsory
Revised : 04/11 2003 Written : 11/12 2000
Placement : 2. semester Hours per week : 8
Length : 1 semester Teaching Language : Danish and English

Objective : The objective of the study module is to enable the student:

To comprehend how aliasing may occur when continuous-time signals are converted into discrete-time signals.

To analyze digital filters (FIR and IIR) using the concepts: Convolution, difference equation, impulse response, frequency response, transfer function in the z-domain and poles/zeros.

To synthesize digital filters using MATLAB design tools.

Have knowledge of implementation of digital filters using a DSP evaluation kit.

Beside the acquisition of technical skills, the objectives of the study module are:To strengthen the ability to cooperate, make schedules and plans, acquire new knowledge and communicate clearly in writing and speech.
Principal Content : - Analysis of discrete-time linear systems in the time-, frequency- and z-domains.

- Design and implementation of digital filters.

- DSP system including A/D and D/A converters.

MATLAB is used as simulation tools with the goal of supporting the learning process.
Teaching method : Classroom teaching, problem solving in groups and exercises.
A larger assignment is introduced in the beginning of the semester and the assignment will be carried out throughout the semester.
During the last approximately 3 weeks, the student will spend all his time on the assignment.
Required prequisites : Documented knowledge corresponding to DSM1.
Recommended prerequisites : -
Relations : The study module is succeeded by DSM3 (for students in Information and Communication Technology) or DSM4 (for students in Electronics and Computer Engineering).
Type of examination : Look under remarks
External examiner : External
Marking : Scale of 13
Remarks : During the semester, the solution of a number of assignments must be handed in.
The assignments must be approved in order to enter the exam.

The mark for each student is based on the 13-scale. The mark is determined as a result of two marks:
The evaluation of the final assignment and the presentation of the student"s individual solution of a CASE assignment.

The objective of the final assignment examination is to evaluate the work carried out. The examination is a group examination, in which the group presents its work. A common grade (for all students in a group) is given based on the report and the presentation.
In exceptional cases, it may be decided that a student doesn"t pass and is then given a mark of 00 or 03. A reason for this may be that the student hasn"t contributed sufficiently to the work or lacks a basic understanding of fundamental theory related to the study module.

Under the assumption that the final assignment is passed, the student draws a CASE assignment from a pool. The assignment focuses on one or several topics from the course. During a period of 24 hours, the student solves the assignments and prepares a presentation of a solution. The presentation must be given at an individual oral examination. A mark based on the 13-scale will be given.

Both marks must be at least 5 and the average (without rounding up) must be at least 6.0.

If a student doesn"t pass the study module, guidance is offered to the student concerning what she should do to improve the chances of passing the next time.
