ECE438 is about digital signals and systems

2) Digital Signal = a signal that can be represented by a sequence of 0's and 1's.
+
*[[CourseNotes16_(BoutinSpring2009)|Course Notes Lecture 16 Feb. 23, 2009]]
so the signal must be DT X(t) = t, i.e. need x(n), n belongs to Z

Signal values must be discrete

[[ECE438_(BoutinFall2009)|Back to ECE438, Spring 2009]]
-<math>x(n) \in {0,1}</math> <-- binary valued signal
+
<br/><math>x(n) \in {0,1,2,...,255}</math> <-- gray scale valued signal
+
 
+
 
+
Another example of digital signal
+
 
+
-the pixels in a bitmap image (grayscale) can have a value of 0,1,2,...,255 for each individual pixel.
+
--If you concatenate all the rows of the image you can convert it to a 1 dimensional signal.
+
i.e. <math>x = (row1,row2,row3)</math>
+
 
+
2D Digital signal = signal that can be represented by an array of 0's and 1's
+
 
+
<u>example</u>: 128x128 gray scale image<br/>
+
<math>p_{ij} \in {0,...,255}</math>
+
 
+
matrix <math>A_{ij} = p_{ij}</math> of size 128x128 <br/>
+
 
+
<strong>Digital Systems</strong> = system that can process a ditital signal.<br/>
+
E.g.
+
<ul>
+
<li>Software (MATLAB,C, ...) </li>
+
<li>Firmware</li>
+
<li>Digital Hardware</li>
+
</ul>
+
 
+
== Advantages of Digital Systems ==
+
<ul>
+
<li>precise,reproducable</li>
+
<li>easier to store data</li>
+
<li>easier to build:
+
  <ul>
+
    <li>just need to represent 2 states instead of a continuous range of values</li>
+
  </ul>
+
</li>
+
</ul>
+
 
+
<strong>Software based digital systems</strong>
+
<ul>
+
<li>easier to build</li>
+
<li>cheap to build</li>
+
<li>adaptable</li>
+
<li>easy to fix/upgrade</li>
+
</ul>
+
 
+
<strong>Hardware-based digital systems</strong>
+
<ul>
+
<li>fast.</li>

</ul>

<strong>Continuous time world</strong>

<ul>

<li>most natural signals live here</li>

<li>things are easy to write, understand, conceptualize</li>

<strong>Digital World</strong>

<p>These world are brought together using sampling & quantization, as well as reconstruction</p>

== Signal Characteristics ==
+
<ul>
+
  <li>Deterministic vs. random
+
    <ul>
+
      <li>x(t) well defined , s.a. <math>x(t) =  e^{j\pi t}</math></li>
+
      <li>x(n) well defined , s.a. <math>x(n) = j^{n}</math> <br/>ex: Lena's image</li>
+
    </ul>
+
  </li>
+
  <li>Random
+
    <ul>
+
      <li>x(t) drawn according to some distribution</li>
+
      <li>example: x(t) white noise<br/>x = rand(10) (almost) random</li>
+
    </ul>
+
  </li>
+
</ul>
+
 
+
<ul>
+
  <li>Periodic vs. non-periodic
+
  <ul><li> if <math>\exists</math> positive T such that x(t+T) = x(t),<math>\forall t</math> then we say that x(t) is periodic with period T</li></ul>
