Description:
The course introduces continuous-time (analogue) signals and analysis and design of continuous-time systems. After reviewing some basic concepts in complex numbers, trigonometry, and functions, the course considers three alternate representations (differential equations, impulse response, and Laplace/Fourier transfer function) for linear, time invariant (LTI) systems. The analysis of LTI systems is covered for each of the three representations. Frequency-selective filters are introduced as a special class of LTI systems for which design techniques based on Butterworth filters are covered. Application of continuous-time system in communication systems is presented.
