Signals and Systems: Introduction

This lecture introduces the Signals and Systems course, focusing on the general theory of Linear Time Invariance Systems. The instructor, Yonia Nishkel, explains the mathematical modeling of information and privacy, emphasizing the practical applications of understanding system behavior. The course covers basic definitions, properties of systems and signals, Fourier methods, frequency response, and transforms. The material is fundamental for signal processing, electrical engineering, communication systems, control theory, communication theory, stochastic systems, and machine learning.
