Educational Goals

This course is designed for engineering students who have already a basic background in signals & systems, probability theory and statistics. It offers the theoretical foundations to information theory and communication theory. Stochastic signal representation and processing is addressed. The course describes the time-frequency characterization and processing of random processes. Operations such as quantization and modulation are outlined in detail.

Content

Random Signals describes the representation and analysis of waveforms using a stochastic framework. It introduces methods of stochastic characterization, also within the framework of time-frequency analysis. It studies the output of systems, which have been fed by random signals. A detailed treatment of Linear Shift-Invariant filtering, and Quantization is proposed in this context. It also introduces some basic schemes for analog modulation.

Teaching Methods

Individual work is complemented by roughly 30 hours of lectures and problem solving. Non mandatory lab work is also made available to facilitate the understanding of the course programme.

Assessment Methods

The final evaluation of the Random Signals course is determined through an oral exam. Prior to being admitted to the oral exam, the student must take a written test. During the semester, other types of continuous evaluation may take place through homework and/or lab activities, which may ease the final examination process.
