Slectures

Post a link to your slecture page below the relevant topic. If you want to reserve a particular topic, write your name/nickname below the topic. Please no more than 4 students per topic. To build your slecture page, you should use the following templates.

• Template for text slecture
• Template for video slecture

• Topic 1: Fourier transform as a function of frequency $ \omega $ versus Fourier transform as a function of frequency $ f $ (in hertz). (Make sure to give some examples, including some signal whose FT nvolves Dirac delta(s). For that signal whose FT involves Dirac delta(s), compute the FT two different ways: 1) by starting from the ECE301 FT pair and making a change of variable, and 2) using the CTFT formulas. Observe that the expressions for the FT are different. Then point out that one can transform one expression into the other using the scaling property of the Dirac delta.) DEADLINE September 19

• Topic 2: Definition of the "rep" and "comb" operators. (Note that there are two ways to define each of these operators: using multiplication/convolution with an impulse train, or using a summation formula without impulse-train. You should include both representations and explain how to go from one to the other.) DEADLINE September 19

• Topic 3: Fourier transform of "rep" and "comb". (Make sure to carefully explain how to compute the Fourier transform of an impulse-train. You do not need to prove the multiplication/convolution property of the CTFT, but state it clearly whenever you need to use it.) DEADLINE October 1
  • Video slecture by Ben
  • slecture by Youqin Liu
  • Slecture by Matt Miller
• Topic 4: Discrete-time Fourier transform (DTFT): definition, periodicity property, example (computation of DTFT of a complex exponential- no fudging!) DEADLINE October 1
  • Slecture by Jacob Holtman
  • Slecture by Fabian Faes
  • Slecture by Yijun Han
  • Slecture by Xian Zhang
• Topic 5: Discrete-time Fourier transform (DTFT) of a sampled cosine. (Include Case 1) sampling rate above Nyquist rate, and Case 2) sampling rate below Nyquist rate.) DEADLINE October 3
  • Slecture by Andrew Pawling
  • Slecture by Sutton Hathorn
  • Slecture by Sahil Sanghani
• Topic 6: Nyquist Theorem, with proof and example DEADLINE October 6
  • Text slecture by Michael Hayashi
  • Text slecture by Miguel Castellanos

• Topic 7: Frequency domain view of the relationship between a signal and a sampling of that signal. DEADLINE October 6
  • Slecture by Botao Chen
  • Slecture by Ryan Johnson
  • Slecture by Evan Stockrahm
• Topic 8: Frequency domain view of downsampling (explain why decimator needs a lowpass filter before the downsampling). DEADLINE October 10
  • Slecture by John Sterrett
  • Slecture by Eric
  • Slecture by David Klouda
  • Slecture by Soonho Kwon
• Topic 9: Frequency domain view of upsampling (explain why interpolator needs a lowpass filter after upsampling). DEADLINE October 13

A bonus point opportunity

Students in ECE438 Fall 2014 have the opportunity to earn up to a 3% bonus by contributing a Rhea page on a subject related to digital signal processing. To pick a subject, simply write your name next to it. Your page will be graded based on content as well as interactions with other people (page views, comments/questions on the page, etc.). The number of links to other courses and subjects will also be taken into account: the more the merrier! Please do not simply copy the lecture notes and do not plagiarize. Read Rhea's copyright policy before proceeding.
