ATI's Advanced Topics in Digital Signal Processing course

Summary: This four-day course is designed for communication systems engineers, programmers, implementers and managers who need to understand current practice and next generation DSP techniques for upcoming communication systems. DSP is more than mapping legacy analog designs to a DSP implementation. To avoid compromise solution appropriate for an earlier time period, we return to first principles to learn how to apply new technology capabilities to the design of next generation communication systems. Students will receive a copy of the instructor's textbook, Multirate Signal Processing for Communication Systems. View course sampler Instructor: Dr. fred harris teaches at San Diego State University where he occupies the CUBIC Signal Processing Chair. His teaching and research areas include Digital Signal Processing, Multirate Signal Processing, Communication Systems, Source Coding and Modem Design. He has extensive practical experience in communication systems, high performance modems, sonar and advanced radar systems and high performance laboratory instrumentation. He holds a number of patents on Multirate Signal Processing for Satellite and Cable Modems and lectures throughout the world on DSP applications. He consults for organizations requiring high performance, cost-effective DSP solutions and has contributed to a number of textbooks and handbooks on various aspects of signal processing.
