Digital Signal Processing

Home / Courses and programs / Digital Signal Processing

Digital Signal Processing (DSP) techniques and methodology have been widely employed in many applications including video/audio/data communications and networking, medical imaging and computer vision, speech synthesis and coding, digital audio and video, and control of complex systems and industrial processes. With advances in microelectronics and high-speed microprocessors, microcontrollers and DSP processors, many complex DSP algorithms for solving real-world application problems can be implemented in real-time and a cost-effective manner.

This Digital Signal Processing certificate program is designed to provide an understanding of DSP fundamentals, principles, applications, current practices and standards, and emerging trends and developments. This program is intended for software, hardware and system engineers and technical managers who are involved in evaluation, design and development of DSP-based applications.
