KEY LEARNING OUTCOMES OF THE COURSE UNIT (On successful completion of this course unit, students/learners will or will be able to)

LO-1 Define and classify the concept of a signal and of a system and operate with useful signal models: unit step, unit impulse, sinusoid, and exponential function. LO-2 Describe the concept of a system’s impulse response and convolution im LTI systems and calculate the response of an LTI system to an arbitrary input by using its impulse response and convolution. LO-3 Express a periodic signal in a Fourier series and an aperiodic signal by a Fourier transform. LO-4 Relate frequency-domain descriptions of signals and systems to their characteristics in the time domain. LO-5 Use frequency-domain techniques to solve input/output problems and to design LTI systems. LO-6 Explain the sampling theorem, including what is required to recover original continuous time signal from its equally spaced samples exactly.
