Signals and Linear Systems
Lecture 1
Aims and Objectives
“The concepts of signals and systems arise in a variety of fields and the techniques associated with these notions play a central role in many areas of science and technology such as, for example, communications, aeronautics, bio-engineering, energy, circuit design, ect. Although the physical nature of the signals and systems involved in these various disciplines are different, they all have basic features in common. The aim of the course is to provide the fundamental and universal tools for the analysis of signals, and for the analysis and design of basic systems and this independently of the domain of application.”
