Content and learning outcomes

Course contents

Basic properties of discrete-time stochastic processes, particularly weak stationary processes. Definitions, distribution functions, density functions, mean value, mean power, variance, ergodicity, autocorrelation function and power spectral density. Gaussian processes and white noise, linear filtering of stochastic processes, linear prediction, AR, MA and ARMA processes, spectral estimation, Wiener filters.

Intended learning outcomes

To give students fundamental knowledge of discrete-time stochastic processes and practical attainments in linear filtering of stochastic processes. The course also covers linear estimation and signal models.
