Lecture
This lecture covers the analysis of linear time-invariant systems, focusing on frequency analysis and the sampling theorem. The instructor begins with a recap of linear systems and their transfer functions, emphasizing the importance of impulse response in determining system behavior. The discussion progresses to the concept of band-limited signals, defining them as signals whose spectrum is zero beyond a certain frequency. The instructor explains amplitude modulation and its significance in telecommunications, illustrating how signals can be transmitted effectively using modulated carriers. The lecture highlights the necessity of adhering to the Nyquist criterion for sampling to avoid aliasing, detailing the implications of under-sampling and the conditions required for accurate signal reconstruction. The instructor concludes by discussing practical applications of the sampling theorem in digital signal processing, emphasizing the importance of filters in managing frequency components. This comprehensive overview integrates theoretical concepts with practical examples, providing a solid foundation for understanding signal processing techniques.
