Interactive teaching of adaptive signal processing

Adaptive Digital Signal Processing JAVA Teaching Tool

This publication presents a JAVA program for teaching the rudiments of adaptive digital signal processing (DSP) algorithms and techniques. Adaptive DSP is on of the most important areas of signal processsing, and provides the core algorithmic means to implement applications ranging from mobile telephone speech coding, to noise cancellation, to communication channel equalization. Over the last 3...

Adaptive signal processing for adaptive control

A few of the well established methods of adaptive signal processing are modified and extended for application to adaptive control. An unknown plant will track an input command signal if the plant is preceded by a controller whose transfer function approximates the inverse of the plant transfer function. An adaptive inverse modeling process can be used to obtain a stable controller, whether the ...

Generalized Adaptive Radar Signal Processing

In this paper , the use of adaptive weights over the radar measurement dimensions of pulse time, antenna receive element, and wideband frequency is extended to cover a much broader range of radar detection problems than was supposed in the original formulation of spacetime adaptive signal processing (STAP). These problems include, among others (1) Adaptive beamforming in three dimensions; (2) D...

Teaching Signal Processing to the Medical Profession

Knowledge of signal processing is very important for medical students. A medical signal may be used for monitoring, constructing an image, or for extracting the numerical quantity of a parameter. This information forms a basis for medical decisions. However, the processing of the signal may lead to distortion and an incorrect interpretation. The present article describes an educational practica...
