Course Highlights

This course features a complete set of lecture notes by the instructor and handouts on a variety of topics.

Course Description

This course provides a solid theoretical foundation for the analysis and processing of experimental data, and real-time experimental control methods. Topics covered include spectral analysis, filter design, system identification, and simulation in continuous and discrete-time domains. The emphasis is on practical problems with laboratory exercises.
