Digital Filter Design
Stub. Digital processing of analog signals end-to-end, practical (non-ideal) digital filters, FIR filter design, generalized linear-phase filters, and FIR design by windowing.
Where the course’s theory pays off as engineering practice: chaining ideal A/D, digital processing, and D/A conversion to filter an analog signal digitally, then designing the digital filter itself. Focuses on FIR filters, whose generalized-linear-phase condition (symmetric/antisymmetric coefficients) guarantees no phase distortion — a property IIR filters generally lack — and on windowing as the standard, simple method for turning an ideal (infinite, noncausal) impulse response into a realizable FIR filter.
