Content and learning outcomes

Course contents

Contents: Amplitude characterization, DFT, FFT, signals and linear systems, correlation, power spectral density, spectrum analysis with FFT. z-transform and digital filters, frequency analysis with filters, applications.

Intended learning outcomes

The student should after finishing the course be able to:

  • Use a signal analyser (FFT-analyser) and be able to choose the measurement setup: frequency range, length of time record, time windows, number of averages etc.
  • Perform signal analysis on measured time record in Matlab.
  • Choose appropriate signal analysis methodology for a given problem. For example choosing between time or frequency domain analysis, one-channel or multi-channel analysis, different types of filtering etc.
  • Interpret results from different types of signal analysis, for instance spectra, correlation functions or frequency response functions.
  • Be able to extract information about the character of the studied signal such as periodicity, time delays and linearity.

Literature and preparations
