Course description

ECE 313H 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 representation of signals and systems, system properties, sampling, Laplace and z-transforms, transfer functions, frequency responses, convolution, stability, Fourier transform, feedback, and control applications, as well as computer analysis using Python.
ECE 313H feeds into several ECE specializations, including Data Science & Machine Learning, Energy Systems & Renewable Energy, and Communications, Networks & Systems.

Course Material

The online class system is hosted on Canvas: [Canvas Course Page]

Handouts will be distributed there. We will also use Canvas to send group e-mails and do online grading. Please make sure you know how to access Canvas and that you are listed there as a student.

We will also use Ed Discussion for online discussions: [Ed Discussion Course Page]

This is a good place to post questions, which can be answered by the instructor, TA, or other students. Since students often have related questions, this is also a good place to look to see other questions and answers.

Assignments and exams will be graded using Gradescope: [Gradescope Course Page]

Gradescope allows the course instructors to quickly grade and return your work in a timely manner.

Links to Ed Discussion and Gradescope are also available through the Canvas course page.
