Course information for TNE042 – Digital Signal Processors

COURSE EXTENT

10h lecture
30 h projectwork + supervision

COURSE TARGET

After fulfilled course, the student should be able to:

* describe how a DSP works and what are the specific architecture
* explain the close relationship between DSP and signal processing
* evaluate a software platform (CCS) and MATLAB
* apply the theory in a smaller practical project

COURSE LITERATURE

Digital Signal Processors, Sen M. Kuo, Woon-Seng Gan, Pearson Prentice-Hall, 2005.
ISBN 0-13-127766-9. The book can best be delivered from a webshop.
Other alternatives will be presented on lecture.

LABORATION

The course (Kuo book) literature describes a number of lab.examples with the DSK5510
(Starter Kit) and Code Composer Studio (CCS). Choose one example among these, perform
the experiment, write a short report and deliver to course coordinator (teacher) before the end
of the study period.

PROJECTWORK

All students should do projectwork, choosen among some given topics or defined in one’s
own hand. You should work together in a two-student group (normally).
The idea of the projects is to look deeper in some main field of the course and either write a
technical report or try to solve the choosen problem(s) with the available DSP-cards.
Typical examples are: frequency analysis of audio input, correlation measurements,
audiofiltering etc.
If your group choose to do practical work you should use Code Composer Studio software
platform and DSK5510 Starter Kit or DM 6437 Digital Video Development Platform, as the
hardware platform.
MATLAB / SIMULINK are also available software tools. The project should start as soon as
possible after course introduction and extend during the course study period (about 7 weeks).
Written results should be delivered to teacher no more than one month after the course is
ended. Practical DSP experiments should be demonstrated no more than one month after the
course is ended.

RESOURCE RESERVATION

The hardware platforms are the bottleneck in the practical experiments. There are a total of
only three DSK5510 Starter Kits and three DM 6437 Digital Video Development Platforms.
This means that you or your group has to make a reservation in a specific calendar each time
you are planning to work with these platforms. You are only allowed to make one reservation
in the calendar in advance and for a time period of max. four hours.
The software CCS is installed in the computers in room TP4028 (floor 4, house Täppan).
