3/17/02 -- The Matlab function filtersinesfun.m has been posted.

This function was used in class on 3/15 and will be used again on 3/118. Using a specified impulse response, it filters the sum of two sinewaves, and then plays the sum, both before and after filtering. It also plots the frequency response of the filters. More details are given as comments in the function.

3/13/02 -- Exam 2, Tuesday March 19, 6-8 PM. Rooms to be announced.

As indicated in the Course Information handout, Exam 2 will be given on Tuesday, March 19, 6 - 8 PM, in rooms to be announced.

D.N. and S.L.

3/12/02 -- Further corrections to the DSP First textbook

Further corrections have been received from the authors and posted. The new list includes the old list. For those of you that have already used the old list, the following are the new ones that I have found: 5, 10, 11, 13, 14, 20, 48, 88. D.N.

2/20/20 -- The Sampling Demo

The sampling demo that Prof. Lafortune showed in class is now available.  Check this page for the MATLAB files and instructions.

2/20/02 -- Exam 1 is graded and being returned in class today. Exam 1 Solutions are now posted. Exam statistics, such as averages, and grade ranges are included at the top of the first page of the solutions.

To properly interpret your grade, please compare your grade to the grade ranges shown. For example, if you received a grade between 75 and 90, your exam is in the B-range. If your score is in the upper third of this range, your exam is a B+, if you are in the middle third, your exam is a B, and so on.

We will similarly declare grade ranges for exam 2 and the final exam, after each has been graded. The ranges for a given exam will depend on how difficult is the exam. Thus, the grade ranges may well be different for each exam.

When computing grades at the end of the term, your exam scores will be scaled so that if, for example, you are in the middle of the B range for all three exams, then your overall exam average will be in the middle of the B range. Of course, homework and lab scores will also be counted, as discussed in the course information page.

If you have questions about the exam, please come see any of our staff (faculty or GSI's). However, if you believe regrading is needed, please see Prof. Lafortune or Neuhoff -- in particular, Prof. Neuhoff for Problem 11 and Prof. Lafortune for Problem 12.
