Introduce to the study of processing and analysis signals.
Study the main mathematical tools of analysis and signal processing.
Applying signal processing to the study of biological signals.
Develop in the student the skills need to formulate the analysis of systems.
Use appropriate software.
The student should be able to:
- Formulate problems using the studied tools
- Process signals acquired and stored on a computer
- Understand the differences between discrete and continuous domains and their properties
- Analyse the frequency response of a systems
- Obtain the response of a system to any input based on the impulse response
- Modelling signals using the tools studied - Understand the influence of noise on a signal
- Extract the information contained in a signal in order to highlight the characteristics of the system that produces it
- Develop theoretical models that describe the operation of biomedical systems
