Overview

Prepare for a new career with $100 off Coursera Plus
Gear up for jobs in high-demand fields: data analytics, digital marketing, and more.
This course is prepared for the engineering students in their final year of undergraduate studies or in their graduate studies. Electrical Engineering students with a good background in Signals and Systems are prepared to take this course. Students in other engineering disciplines, or in computer science, mathematics, geo physics or physics should also be able to follow this course. While a course in Digital Signal Processing would be useful, it is not necessary for a capable student. The course has followed problem solving approach as engineers are known as problem solvers. The entire course is presented in the form of series of problems and solutions.INTENDED AUDIENCE : ElectronicsElectricalInstrumentationPRE-REQUISITES : Theory: Signals and Systems, Familiarity with the basic definition of probability Computer skill: Familiarity with MATLABINDUSTRY SUPPORT : Philips ResearchGE Global ResearchSiemens ResearchTCSWiproConduent Labs India
