3.00 Credits
After a review of discrete-time system theory and the z- transform, the fundamental properties and design of digital filters are presented, particularly IIR filters and linear-phase FIR filters. Special emphasis is placed on frequency and time domain properties, especially the symmetry properties of linear-phase filters. Prerequisite: EE 336. 3 semester hours
-
3.00 Credits
An introduction to the theory and application of image processing techniques. Topics include image acquisition and display; the human visual response; image enhancement, smoothing, and sharpening; selected topics from two dimensional signal and system theory; image segmentation and restoration; and pseudocolor image processing. Prerequisite: EE 336. 3 semester hours
-
3.00 Credits
An introduction to the theory and design of digital and analog communication systems. Includes a brief review of the Fourier transform, Fourier series, and signal analysis. The generation, detection, design, and performance of baseband pulse modulation, bandpass digital modulation, and analog modulation systems are discussed. If time permits, additional topics may include link budget analysis and spread spectrum systems. Prerequisites: EE 336, EE 337, ENGR 315, or by permission of the instructor in place of ENGR 315. 3 semester hours
-
3.00 Credits
An introduction to optical communication systems covering the characteristics of the optical fiber as well as photodetection/ phototransmission devices. Specific topics include dispersion and attentuation in SI and GRIN fiber, LEDs/semiconductor lasers in phototransmission and PIN/avalanche photodiodes in photodetection. Prerequisites: EE 313, EE 337. 3 semester hours
-
3.00 Credits
This course reviews the fundamentals of English composition: parts of speech, punctuation and mechanics, spelling, diction, sentence structure, the paragraph, outlining, the theme. The course, designed to assist students in increasing their level of competency in written expression, provides intense drill in fundamentals and frequent short writing exercises. Some writing exercises are designed to teach students the use of the dictionary and the use of the library. After successful completion of ENGL 100, students must enroll in ENGL 101. Not open to students who have received credit for ENGL 101. ENGL 100 may not be used as a humanities elective or to satisfy the humanities distribution requirement for Arts and Sciences students. 3 semester hours
-
3.00 Credits
This intensive course in expository writing focuses on rhetorical and grammatical principles, logical expression, unity, coherence, emphasis, syntax, punctuation, and diction. Readings stimulate expression and provide examples of exposition and argumentation. Assignments include summary, analysis, and synthesis of primary and secondary sources. Research techniques, including note-taking, documentation, and outlining, support an analytical source-based research paper of eight to ten pages. ENGL 101 may not be used as a humanities elective or to satisfy the humanities distribution requirement for Arts and Sciences students. Prerequisite: ENGL 100 or approval of the English faculty. Some students may be exempted from this course, based on their proficiency. 3 semester hours
