The students know about the properties of analog and discrete signals and are able to determine the properties of given signals.
They are able to perform signal manipulations (of the amplitude and of the independent variable).
They are able to describe simple signals by mathematical functions (unit step, Dirac pulse, complex exponential functions) and to illustrate them in time domain.
They know about the representation of periodic signals as Fourier series and to illustrate and interpret the information as frequency spectrum.
They are able to determine the average signal energy or power and know about the terminology of correlation.
