Summary

Signal processing tools are presented from an intuitive geometric point of view which is at the heart of all modern signal processing techniques. Student will develop the mathematical depth and rigor needed for the study of advanced topics in signal processing.

Content

From Euclid to Hilbert applied to inverse problems (vector spaces; Hilbert spaces; approximations, projections and decompositions; bases)

Sequences, Discrete-Time Systems, Functions and Continuous-Time Systems (flipped class review of discrete-time Fourier transform; z-transform; DFT; Fourier transform and Fourier series).

Sampling and Interpolation (sampling and interpolation with finite-dimensional vectors, sequences and functions)

Approximation and compression (polynomial and spline approximation, transform coding and compression)

Localization and uncertainty (time and frequency localization for sequences and functions, tiling the time-frequency plane)

 

Computerized tomography fundamentals (line integrals and projections, Radon transform, Fourier projection/slice theorem, filtered backprojection algorithm, algebraic reconstruction techniques).

 

Array signal processing fundamentals (spatial filtering and beamforming, adaptive beamforming, acoustic and EM source localization techniques).

Compressed sensing and finite rate of innovation (overview and definitions, reconstruction methods and applications)

Euclidean Distance Matrices (definition, properties and applications).
