F.L. Schwenninger Academic year 2023 Starting block 1A Application procedure - Registration using OSIRIS No Aims Students are able to understand the mathematical descriptions of simple real and complex signals and of simple LTI systems, in both time and frequency domains, with advantages and disadvantages; learn the mathematical techniques that allow to switch between the two representations. Content Systems and Signals provides the mathematical background necessary to support the Smart Technology related courses. The first half of the course focuses on the time domain representation of signals and systems; it covers trigonometric functions, complex numbers and simple second order differential equations. The concept of Fourier series is also introduced, in preparation for the second half of the course, that focuses on the frequency domain representation. The main topic of the second half is the Laplace transform, its properties and its application to the study of simple interconnections of systems and their behaviors. The topics are coordinated with the other courses in order to keep a close relationship between mathematical foundation and the application within the ST context. This is the Systems and Signals part of module 2020000979 / 202000980 - Smart Technology (B-CREA) with course code 202001499 for pre-master students. If you want to enroll, please contact K.
