Appearing in IEEE Potentials in the six issues of year 2010.

Abstract

This six-part series is a mini-course, focused on system concepts, that is aimed at the gap between Signals and Systems and the usual first DSP course.

The six parts

Part I Jan/Feb	Signals and their representations motivation, philosophy, and notation manuscript, IEEE abstract, IEEE pdf

Part II Mar/Apr	Interpolation, decimation, complex signals, and Nyquist signaling oversampling in D/A conversion and the basics of decimation, complex signals, and Nyquist signaling manuscript, IEEE abstract, IEEE pdf

Part III May/Jun	Analytic signals and QAM data transmission analytic signals and linear data modulation manuscript, IEEE abstract, IEEE pdf

Part IV Jul/Aug	DSP approaches to IQ modulation and demodulation analog and DSP-based IQ demodulation manuscript, IEEE abstract, IEEE pdf

Part V Sep/Oct	Frequency conversion frequency conversion and its use in larger systems manuscript, IEEE abstract, IEEE pdf

Part VI Nov/Dec	Vestigial-sideband modulation and nonintegral rate changes two topics: first, vestigial-sideband modulation as a example system of significant complexity and, second, changing a sample rate by a rational but nonintegral ratio manuscript, IEEE abstract, IEEE pdf
