4. What is signal? • Anything which carries information • Examples are – • speech, is encountered in telephony, radio, and everyday life • biomedical signals, (heart signals, brain signals) • Sound and music, as reproduced by the compact disc player • Video and image, • Radar signals, which are used to determine the range and bearing of distant targets Cont.….

5. What is signal? • In this course we shall adopt the following definition for the signal: “a signal is defined as any physical quantity that varies with time, space or any other independent variable or variables” (Proakis and Manolakis) Cont.….

7. What is the difference between signal conditioning and signal processing? • A signal conditioning element converts one type of electronic signal into another type of signal. • Its primary use is to convert a signal that may be difficult to read by conventional instrumentation into a more easily read format.

8. What is the difference between signal conditioning and signal processing? • In performing this conversion a number of functions may take place. • They include: • Amplification • Electrical Isolation • Linearization • Cold junction compensation • Excitation Source: (http://www.omega.com/prodinfo/SignalConditioners.html) Cont.….

9. What is the difference between signal conditioning and signal processing? • Signal processing is the challenge of extracting useful information from signals or more formally, • Signal processing is the analysis, interpretation, and manipulation of signals like sound, images, time-varying measurement values and sensor data etc… • For example biological data such as electrocardiograms, control system signals, telecommunication transmission signals such as radio signals, and many others. Cont.….

10. Need for signal processing • When a signal is transmitted from one point to another there is every possibility of contamination /deformation of the signal by external noise. So to retrieve the original signal at the receiver suitable filters are to be used, i.e., the signal is processed to obtain the pure signal. • Or in general, the processing of the signal helps to estimate characteristic parameters of the signal and also to transform the signal in to the desired form.

11. Types of processing • Transformation • Filtering • Detection • Estimation • Recognition and classification • Coding (compression) • Synthesis and reproduction • Recording, archiving • Analyzing, modeling

12. Categories of signal processing • Depending on whether the signal is analog or digital, signal processing is categorized as analog signal processing and digital signal processing. • So, let’s first understand the analog and the digital signals.

13. Analog and digital signal

14. Analog signal processing • Analog signal processing if for signals that have not been digitized, as in classical radio, telephone, radar, and television systems. • This involves linear electronic circuits such as passive filters, active filters, additive mixers, integrators and delay lines. • It also involves non-linear circuits such as compander, multiplicators (frequency mixers and voltage-controlled amplifiers), voltage-controlled filters, voltage-controlled oscillators and phase-locked loops.

15. Digital signal processing • Digital signal processing — for signals that have been digitized, processing is done by general-purpose computers or by digital circuits such as ASICs, field-programmable gate arrays or specialized digital signal processors (DSP chips). Cont.….

17. DSP ADC DAC x Y Digital sampling of an analog signal: A Example of DSP algorithms is MAC: t count Y =  ai * xi i = 1 for (i = 1; i < count; i++){ sum += m[i] * n[i]; } Digital Signal Processing • But what about analog signals? Cont.….

18. Digital And analog Processing system example x(n) and y(n) are discrete signals v(t) and vo(t) are continuous signals

19. What is Special about Signal Processing Applications? • Large number of samples being continuously fed to the system (samples or blocks). • Repetitive Operations: • The same operation being applied to different set of samples • Parallel processing • Vector and Matrix Operations • Real time operations

20. Digital v/s. analog signal processing

21. Discussion on Advantages of DSP • Accuracy: The analog circuits are prone to temperature and external effects, but the digital filters have no such problems. • Flexibility: Reconfiguration of analog filters is very complex whereas the digital filters can be reconfigured easily by changing the program coefficients. • Storage: Digital signals can be easily stored on any magnetic media or optical media are using semiconductor chips. CONT….

22. Discussion on Advantages of DSP • Easy operation: Even complex mathematical operations can be performed easily using computers, which is not the case with analog processing. • Multiplexing: Digital signal processing provides the way for Integrated service digital network (ISDN) where digitized signals can be multiplexed with other digital data and transmitted through the same channel.
