Students get a detailed overview of procedures of analysis and digital signal processing of acoustic signals. They will gain experience of discrete and digital system simulation with the help of modern simulation tools. They will be able to design and simulate algorithms for acoustic signal processing, which are directly designed for the CPU of a computer system or for signal processor.

The subject knowledge on the Bachelor degree level is required.

Not applicable.

Teaching methods depend on the type of course unit as specified in the BUT Rules for Studies and Examinations.
Lectures provide the explanation of basic principles, subject methodology, examples of problems and their solutions.
Computer exercises support practical mastering of themes presented in lectures. Active participation of students is required.
Participation at lectures is recommended. Participation at computer exercises is checked.
Course is taking advantage of e-learning (Moodle) system.

Evaluation of study results follows the Rules for Studies and Examinations of BUT and the corresponding norm of FEEC. Up to 20 points are given for each of two tests in computer exercises. Up to 60 points are given for the final written examination.

The aim of the course is to provide students with information about essential simulation methods and implementation procedures in the area of digital audio signal processing. Considerable attention is devoted to the present trends in the area of general audio signal with focus on musical signals.

It is obligatory to do all computer exercises and tests to complete the course. Other forms of checked instruction are specified by a regulation issued by the guarantor of the course and updated for every academic year.
