PGST1

Course: Signal and Information Theory I

Department/Abbreviation: KEF/PGST1

Year: 2021

Guarantee: 'doc. RNDr. Libor Machala, Ph.D.'

Annotation: The aim is to inform students with the main theoretical aspects of transfer and processing of signals. Attention is paid to understanding of Fourier transform as a tool for description of signals in frequency domain.
