This course deals with design and synthesis of both analog and digital filters. The teaching activity is reinforced by laboratory practical case studies (design, implementation and testing of analog filters, demos for digital filters) and computer simulations (by using PSPICE for analog filters and Matlab for digital filters).
Learning to design, implement and test analog and digital filters. The classrooms are complemented and reinforced by laboratory activity and computer simulations.
Combination of traditional lectures (about 30 hours) and lab (HW/Matlab) sessions (about 30 hours).
RLC, LC and RC immittance synthesis
General concepts about filter synthesis (Darlington's synthesis, frequency mappings, ideal vs. physical filters, impedance matching)
Butterworth filters (design techniques, examples in HW lab)
Chebyschev filters (design techniques, examples in HW lab), elliptic filters (basics)
Digital filters (FIR and IIR, design techniques, examples in Matlab and in HW lab)
Adaptive filters (design techniques, examples in Matlab)
RC active filters (design techniques, examples in HW lab)
Switched capacitors filters
