Overview

The practical application of DSP systems using industry standard platforms. The unit covers practical aspects including current industry standard integrated software development and debugger tools, assembler from C, code optimisation, memory management, cache, architecture, hardware pipelining, XDAIS (eXpressDSP Algorithm Standard), EDMA, HWI (hardware interrupts) , McBSP (multiple channel buffered serial port), channel sorting, DSP/BIOS (scalable real-time kernel), HPI (host port interface). Advanced topics include wavelets, adaptive filters, real-time digital filters.

Offerings in 2021

The 2021 handbook lists no offerings for ECE4012.

Learning outcomes

When you finish this unit, you should be able to:

  1. 1

    To understand signals as fractal and non fractal and how they can be faithfully recorded, analysed and modified by systems

  2. 2

    To understand the strengths and weakness of sampled and digitised representations of signals, including images, in both time, frequency and time-frequency / time-scale domains

  3. 3

    To experience the strength of mathematics in describing these processes

  4. 4

    To understand and implement adaptive filter and real time filter systems

  5. 5

    To implement adaptive filters on an industry standard DSP development system

  6. 6

    To implement real-time filters on an industry standard DSP development system

  7. 7

    To implement wavelets on an industry standard DSP development system

  8. 8

    To develop a working knowledge of a real time current industry standard integrated software development system

  9. 9

    To develop a working knowledge of a real time hardware development system

  10. 10

    To develop a working knowledge of a real time hardware peripherals and their interfacing

Workload and teaching

Minimum total expected workload to achieve the learning outcomes for this unit is 144 hours per semester typically comprising a mixture of 4-6 hours of scheduled learning activities and 6-8 hours independent study per week.
