Learning activities and teaching methods
Lecture
Learning outcomes
The main aim is to learn theoretical aspects of signal transfer and processing. Attention is paid to understanding of Fourier transform as a tool for description of signals in spectral domain.
Students will have overview about transfer aspects of signals and ways of their proccessing. Students will be familiarized with Fourier transform, properties of linear transfer systems, noises, and digital signals.
Prerequisites
unspecified

Assessment methods and criteria
Oral exam

Requirements in the range of sylabus of the lecture. Emphasis is placed to understanding of the term Fourier Transform.
