Name: m01 - An Overview of Continuous-Time Signals
ID: m13878
Language:
Summary: Many phenomena are modeled as continuous-time signals. The description and analysis uses functions of a real variable (often time or distance) and Fourier theory is used to give a frequency domain description. Wavelets are a modern tool for signal analysis.
Subject: Science and Technology
