Course Objectives
Digital signal processing (DSP) is the mathematical manipulation of an information signal to
enhance or simply modify it in some way. It is characterized by the representation of discrete
time, discrete frequency, or other discrete domain signals by a sequence of numbers or symbols
and the processing of these signals. The objective of this course is to introduce students to
fundamental concepts of DSP, including sampling and reconstruction, the z-Transform, the
Discrete Fourier Transform (DFT) and its implementation, finite impulse response (FIR) and
infinite impulse response (IIR) digital filtering, multirate signal processing, and applications in
digital media. The course includes weekly lectures (3 hours total), weekly 1-hour tutorials, and
biweekly lab sessions during the semester.

Course Policies
All tests and the final exam make use of a non-programmable (Type 2) calculator. No
programmable calculators are allowed. The final exam is Type C (candidates may prepare,
bring to the exam and use a single standard aid sheet supplied by the registrars office).
The Facultys policy on Petition for Consider in Course Work will be employed for missed
tests and late assignments. Official supporting documentation must be provided and the
completed petition must be filed with the EngSci office.
Questions regarding marking must be written on a piece of paper and submitted with the
associated test/assignment to the cognizant TA. There is a 48-hour limit (weekends and
holidays excluded) from the time it is first returned in which you may request a recheck.
Please note that late assignments (e.g., lab write-ups) will be deducted 15% per business day.
Academic integrity is of utmost important. Any issues of plagiarism and inappropriate

collaboration will be taken seriously and reported to the appropriate higher authority.
Students with diverse learning styles and needs are welcome in this course. In particular, if
you have a disability/health consideration that may require accommodations, please feel free
to approach me and/or Accessibility Services at (416) 978 8060;
