Objectives
Fundamentals of multirate digital signal processing, which is one of the most crucial subtopics of DSP for synthesizing efficient digital systems for various applications. Design of decimators, interpolators, multirate filter banks and wavelet filter banks. Some applications of multirate signal processing are also considered.

Requirements for completing the course
Final examination and 2 assignments out of 3.

Evaluation criteria for the course

  • Course is graded on the basis of answers to exam questions. Very good grade is obtained when exam questions are correctly answered and 2 of 3 homeworks are accepted. Course acceptance threshold is approx. half of the maximum exam points. The third homework is a volunteer work and is prized with increasing the exam result by one grade provided that the threshold is passed.

  • Used assessment scale is numeric (1-5)
