HF1011 Signals, Systems and Transforms 8.0 credits

• Differential equations and difference equations
• Fourier series, the Fouriertransform, the Laplacetransform and the Z transform
• State space models and transfer functions in the time and frequency domain
• Fundamental properties of linear systems in the time and frequency domain
• Mathematical models of physical systems and signals
• Sampling, discretisation and the alias effect
• Modeling and simulation with MATLAB / Simulink

After completing this course, students should demonstrate competency in the following skills:

• Define and interpret the fundamental concepts of systems, signals and models
• Set up mathematical models of signals and systems
• Describe and analyse continuos time discrete time signals and systems in the time- and frequency domain
• Understand and use the concepts of stability and performance
• Understand the concepts of sampling, discretisation and alias

Calculus in one variable and linear algebra (HF1008) or corresponding

If the course is discontinued, students may request to be examined during the following two academic years.

• LAB1 - Laboratory, 2.0 credits, grading scale: P, F
• TEN1 - Examination, 6.0 credits, grading scale: A, B, C, D, E, FX, F

Based on recommendation from KTH’s coordinator for disabilities, the examiner will decide how to adapt an examination for students with documented disability.

The examiner may apply another examination format when re-examining individual students.
