The Kroneker delta function

Material by others:

Notes on the FFT by C. S. Burrus

An Introduction to Fourier Theory

Supplemental material for current or next lecture:

Takeup of the MIDTERM TEST:

Takeup of the MIDTERM TEST:

Examples of FFTs that are not radix 2

radix 3 DIT FFT

FFT that is not a radix but, more generally, has N=RQ points, which can be expressed as R Qpoint DFTs or Q Rpoint DFTs.

Lab5: Wearable Personal Safety Device with radar vision system for detecting crime before it happens

lab5 is now online. The entire directory is available, with no index.htm file, if you would like to browse the directory and take a look at some of the files in the directory. Alternatively, you can download the entire gzipped tarfile to your own computer.

If you are interested in learning more about the chirplet transform and radar vision, you can also download a recent draft of a paper on chirplet based radar vision.

office hours: wed. and fri. 4pm to 5pm (lecture finishes mp102, then to sf2202 or my office, sf2001)
