Signal and System Analysis

For Test 2 the students are expected to be able to:

• Represent of periodic signals using Fourier series and construct spectral plots
• Use Parsaval's theorem for periodic signals to determine signal power
• Use Parsaval's theorem for aperiodic signals to determine signal energy
• Determine the response of linear time-invariant systems to periodic input
• Understand the criteria for distortionless transmission
• Represent aperiodic signals using the Fourier transform
• Understand the properties of the Fourier transform
• Understand the concept of bandwidth and the signal duration/bandwidth relationship
• Represent systems in the frequency domain using the transfer function
• Determine the output of a system given its input
• Understand the characteristics of ideal filters
