Lecture 4 Outline Review of Last Lecture: Announcements

The document outlines a lecture on signal processing and Fourier analysis. It discusses key topics like Fourier series, Fourier transforms, filtering of periodic signals, and properties of important transform pairs. Important functions introduced include the unit step, unit impulse, and sinc functions. Filtering properties are examined including exponential eigenfunctions and using the Fourier transform to analyze how periodic signals are affected by linear time-invariant systems.

  Announcements:   Performance metric


  HWs today moved to tomorrow 10:30-11:30   For analog systems, metric is fidelity: f(m(t),m(t)),
^ e.g. MSE
  Makeup lecture Friday 12:15-1:05 (this room), pizza outside at 12.   For digital systems, it is data rate and bit error probability Pb=p(b≠b).
  1st HW assignment due Thursday
  Special Functions: Unit and Step   Without noise or distortion, or without concern for Pb, can
transmit at an infinite data rate
  Fourier Series
  Data rates over channels with noise (and distortion) have a

  Key Fourier Transforms Properties   Signal energy and power determine resistance to noise
  Sampling   Communication system shift, scale, and invert signals
  Typo: g(t-T) shifts signal by T seconds: g(t) g(t-T)
  Filtering 0 T
  Correlation measures the “sameness” of two signals. Signals
  Ideal Filters with a correlation of zero are called orthogonal
