Open Lectures - (Digital) Signal Processing

Whenever we talk on the phone or whenever we watch videos online or whenever we read e-books on tablets, the technology behind what we are doing is (digital) signal processing - the process of measuring, manipulating or analyzing information. Signal processing is widely used in the areas involving signals such as sound, electromagnetic radiation, images, and sensor data.

We are living in digital times, so we may think learning digital signal processing seems like a piece of cake. However, learning digital signal processing is a bit challenging - even for electrical engineering students. This provides a collection of open lectures about signal processing and its mathematical tools like the Fourier transform.
