Optimum and Adaptive Filtering 448 (620.448)

6 points

Semester 2

Outcomes: Students gain in-depth technical competence in analysis, design and implementation of algorithms for optimum and adaptive filterings; develop skills in the identification, formulation and solution of problems; learn how to apply adaptive filters in control and communications engineering; and understand innovations and advances in signal processing for modern control and communications engineering.

Content: This unit provides a brief review of stochastic processes: stationary processes and models, spectrum analysis; linear optimum filtering: Weiner and Kalman filters and linear prediction; linear adaptive filtering: method of steepest descent, stochastic gradient-based algorithm; method of least squares, standard recursive least-squares estimation, implementation techniques, finite precision and other effects; application to control and communication systems.

AssessmentThis comprises an examination, class tests and worked laboratory assignments. The examination assesses students’ understanding of adaptive systems theory and its application to control and signal processing engineering practice. Class tests are used for continuous assessment and enable students to monitor their own progress during the semester. The laboratory assignments allow students to analyse, experiment and evaluate the different algorithms and design implementations covered in class, and explore the design and implementation of adaptive filters in control and communications.
