Recommended:
Material Covered (Subject to Change)
- Week 1 Intro to boards and tools – Book Ch. 1-2
- Week 2 Architecture – FIR-IIR Filters
- Week 3 FFT – Adaptive Filtering
- Week 4 Code optimization – Multirate Filtering

- Week 6 Project proposals - Reviews
- Weeks 5-13 Project
- Week 10 Progress report + presentation
- Week 14 Project demos/presentations – Final report
Projects
- Project requirements:
- Projects should be done in groups of 2-3.
- Each project must involve using the wavelet transform as a tool. A signal is analyzed/classified, etc by computing its wavelet transform and then the required task (e.g. denoising/classification) is performed in the transform domain.
- The Matlab toolbox or C libraries can be used for the project. C libraries are available at Dartmouth and Rutgers.
- Whichever method is used, the source code will have to be made available along with the project report (only for the routines that you write, which could call those available in matlab or C.)
- Reporting requirements: a final report and a class presentation.
- Project descriptions and references
- Test data for the projects
- Software packages
