Lecturers: This course will be taught by a group of
instructors prominent in the field. Lecturers from MIT/Lincoln Laboratory,
Mathworks, and other organizations will present the material. A finalized
list of instructors will be given in following notices.
Course Objective: This course will provide a broad
overview of the current state-of-the-art in DSP. The presented material will
describe DSP techniques, applications, and implementations. Techniques
include adaptive array processing, multi-rate decompositions and filtering,
non-linear filtering techniques, and wavelet decompositions. Applications
include radar applications, speech processing, image processing and
compression, non-linear channel equalization, medical imaging, and ground
sensing. Implementations option for DSP systems will be covered including
initial development and testing using DSP toolsets such as Matlab, and
consequent real-time implementations using general-purpose processors, DSP
processors, FPGAs, and ASICS. The course is intended to familiarize the
audience with active areas of DSP development, and provide direction for
further investigation.
Intended audience: The course is targeted toward
individuals with a basic exposure to DSP processing techniques, though many
lectures will be accessible to attendees with a general engineering
mathematics and system analysis background. The intended audience is
engineers interested in getting an overview of current DSP development.
