EE 3334 - Linear Signals and Systems


Develop an understanding of the relationship between signals and systems. Methods for the analysis of continuous-time signals and linear time-invariant systems will be covered in depth. Includes concepts of convolution, Fourier series and Fourier transform, and Laplace transform, with applications in analysis and design of frequency selective filters, communication and control systems. Also develop an awareness of discrete time signals and systems, and an awareness of state space representations of linear systems.

Learning Outcomes:
  • Students will be able to analyze the stability and performance (damping ratio, natural frequency, overshoot, settling time, etc.) of an LTI system using its impulse response, frequency response and transfer function.
  • Students will be able to design, implement and test by computer simulation continuous-time frequency-selective filters.
  • Students will be able to relate the convolution integral, Fourier series, Fourier transform and Laplace transform to the characteristics and behaviors of signals and systems..
  • Students will be able to validate a mathematical model for a signal, a frequency selective filter or a control system with respect to the underlying application.
