ECE 313 builds a mathematical foundation for analyzing signals and systems in a wide variety of applications, including speech, audio, image and video processing as well as communications and control systems.

Topics include: Examine representation of signals and systems; system properties; sampling; Laplace and z-transforms; transfer functions and frequency response; convolution; stability; Fourier transform; feedback; and control applications. Explore computer analysis using MATLAB or Python.

ECE 313 feeds into several ECE specializations, including machine learning, energy systems, communication systems, and signal/image processing systems. Here's a slide showing the 15 undergraduate ECE courses at UT Austin that build on ECE 313.
