This is an undergraduate course on mathematical representation of signals and systems.  The main objective of this course is to develop analysis techniques for signals and systems. To do this we will specifically study signal representation, including Fourier and Laplace transforms and system definitions and properties, such as linearity, causality, time invariance, and stability. Specific techniques that will be studied include the use of convolution, transfer functions and system frequency response to determine the output of a system based on the input. These topics are fundamental to all of engineering but are absolutely vital to the fields of communications, signal processing, electro-magnetics, controls and electronics.
