First day of class

1. What is digital signal processing?

2. Course web site

   This course has two web sites:

   • Canvas - Syllabus, assignments, protected files.

   • ECE 3640 - Resources

3. Course overview

   • Mathematical preliminaries (should be review)

   • Discrete-time systems in the time domain (convolution, impulse response, filtering) [Holton 2]

   • Discrete-time Fourier transform (DTFT) [Holton 3]

   • Sampling and reconstruction [Holton 6]

   • Discrete Fourier transform (DFT) [Holton 10]

   • Signal analysis [Holton 14]

   • Z-transform (ZT) [Holton 4]
