Course description
  SIGNALS AND SYSTEMS

Competencies and objectives

 

Course context for academic year 2019-20

This course provides students with the tools needed on the basic concepts related to signals and analog and digital systems. These concepts are essential for future subjects in which they perform signal processing.


We study the different types of signals and analog and digital systems in both time domain and in the frequency domain, and the various tools used to characterize the corresponding transformed domain. It also studies the process of digitizing analog signals necessary to perform signal processing.

 

 

Course content (verified by ANECA in official undergraduate and Master’s degrees)

UA Basic Transversal Competences

  • CT13 : Capacity to adopt the scientific method when planning and carrying out different academic and professional tasks.

 

Specific Competences:>>Basic

  • B4 : Understand and master the basic concepts of linear systems and the related functions and transforms, electric circuit theory, electronic circuits, physical principle of semiconductors and logical families, electronic and photonic devices, materials technology and their application to solve engineering problems.

 

Basic Transversal Competences

  • CT1 : Students should show they possess and understand knowledge in a field of study that continues from general secondary education and is usually found at a level which, although supported by advanced textbooks, also includes certain aspects that involve knowledge arising from the cutting edge of their field of study.
  • CT2 : Students should know how to apply their knowledge to their job or vocation in a professional manner and should possess those skills that are usually reflected when preparing and defending arguments and solving problems in their field of study.
  • CT5 : Students should have developed the necessary learning skills to take on later studies with a high level of autonomy.

 

Specific Competences: >> Competences Common to the Telecommunications Branch

  • C1 : Capacity for self-learning of new knowledge and techniques appropriate for the conception, development and exploitation of telecommunications systems and services.

 

Specific Competences: >> Competences Specific to Sound and Image

  • E1 : Capacity to construct, exploit and manage telecommunications services and applications, understanding these to be systems for the acquisition, analogue and digital treatment, coding, transport, representation, processing, storage, reproduction, management and presentation of audiovisual services and multimedia information.
