The newest student version of Matlab is recommended and endorsed for this course. It comes with the required toolboxes. The professional version with toolboxes is available on all ECS computers and can also be purchased through ECS or through the school of ECE.

PREREQUISITES:

ECE 3793.

REASONABLE ACCOMMODATION POLICY:

The University of Oklahoma is committed to providing reasonable accommodation for all students with disabilities. Students with disabilities who require accommodations in this course are requested to speak with the instructor as early in the semester as possible. Students with disabilities must be registered with the Office of Disability Services prior to receiving accommodations in this course. The Office of Disability Services is located in Goddard Health Center, Suite 166, (405) 325-3852 (Tel) or (405) 325-4173 (TDD only).

RELIGIOUS HOLIDAYS:

It is the policy of the University to excuse absences of students that result from religious observances and to provide without penalty for the rescheduling of examinations and additional required classwork that may fall on religious holidays. It is the responsibility of the student to make alternate arrangements with the instructor at least one week prior to the actual date of the religious holiday.

UNIVERSITY POLICY ON ACADEMIC HONESTY:

http://www.ou.edu/provost/integrity

This page outlines the University's expectations of academic honesty, defines misconduct, provides examples of prohibited conduct, and explains the sanctions available for those found guilty of misconduct. Additional information about the meaning of academic misconduct in this course is provided later in this syllabus.

The UOSA Statement of Academic Integrity will be used in this course.

COURSE DESCRIPTION:

This course will provide an introduction to the fundamental techniques of digital signal processing, including discrete-time linear systems, finite impulse response digital filters, infinite impulse response digital filters, finite word length effects, spectral analysis, fast Fourier transforms, two-dimensional signal processing, and applications.

HOMEWORK:

Homework will be assigned during class. You are encouraged to work together on homework, but DO NOT COPY! Each problem solution that you turn in must be your own; Homework solutions will be posted on the course web page.

Some homework assignments will require the use of Matlab. The standards of academic honesty articulated above apply to Matlab assignments as well. In addition:

Working the homework problems on time will help YOU to do well on the tests and exam.

TESTS & EXAM:

There will be two tests and a cumulative final exam. Each test will be announced in class at least one week in advance. You may use calculators on tests and on the exam, but you may NOT use calculator programs. Also, you are NOT allowed to store alphanumeric data in your calculator prior to a test or exam, and then retrieve that data during the test or exam.

The tests and the exam are OPEN BOOK. You may also bring a clean copy of the lecture notes as published on the course web site and a clean copy of the formula sheet that is published on the course web site. Other materials are NOT ALLOWED. On each test and on the final exam, students enrolled for undergraduate credit (ECE 4213) will be permitted to omit one problem.

Makeup tests will not be given. If you miss a test and your absence is NOT officially excused, then you will receive a zero grade for that test. If you miss a test and your absence IS officially excused, then your final exam grade will be used in place of the missed test grade.

GRADING:

Your final average will be calculated as shown in the table below.

What Value
Homework 20%
Test One 25%
Test Two 25%
Final Exam 30%

These numerical grades will be converted into letter grades using a curve that I will determine. For each section (ECE 4213 and ECE 5213), the same curve will be applied to all students in the class. The curve will never hurt you relative to the standard ten-point grading scale.
