Linear Systems ENSC 380 (3)
The objectives of this course are to cover the modelling and analysis of continuous and discrete signals using linear techniques. Topics covered include: a review of Laplace transforms; methods for the basic modelling of physical systems; discrete and continuous convolution; impulse and step response; transfer functions and filtering; the continuous Fourier transform and its relationship to the Laplace transform; frequency response and Bode plots; sampling; the Z-transform. Prerequisite: ENSC 180, ENSC 220 (or MSE 250) and (MATH 260 or MATH 310), all with a minimum grade of C-. Students with credit for MSE 280 or SEE 341 may not take ENSC 380 for further credit.
