Objectives

1 - When facing a definite problem, the student should know how to extract some qualitative characteristics from the signal at hand, nomely,  those refferent to periodic/non-periodic, deterninistic/random and frequential occupation, in order to decide which analyse and modelling tools are suitable to use.
2 - To use, with skill, a) the suitable analyse and detection methods, namely, those of spectral analysis and correlation; b) criation of linear models, chiefly, autoregressive.
3 – To know how to use and design linear systems which allow separate signals into simpler components to become easier their study and processing.

Prerequisites

Signal Theory

Subject matter

1 -  Revision of basic concepts. Discrete-time linear invariant linear systems.                                         
2 - Spectral Analysis : Blackmann-Tukey and Bartlett-Welch methods. High resolution methods: Capon, Min-Norm and MUSIC
3 -   Linear Prediction. Estimation methods: correlation, covariance and Burg. Ladder/lattice structures.
4 -  Advanced topics (*):
a)      Adaptive Algorithms .
b)      The ARMA model. Parameter Estimation.      
c)      Adaptive array signal processing.
d)      Wavelet Transform.
e)      Time-Frequency Distributions.

* To choose accordingly to the particular interests of the student
