EE3TP4: Slides from Lectures

These slides are in pdf format. The quality is not great, but at least some of them are in colour!

Several students have pointed out that parts of some of the slides have gone missing. I am not yet sure why this has happened (probably a software bug in the pdf processing) but I am trying to track down another scanner so that I can get better quality output.

The material on the properties of convolution which did not scan well, and the material on Fourier representations of signals is available in a folder in the Thode reserve collection.

Chapter 1:
- Introduction
- Signals: The basics, part 1, part 2
- Systems: The basics
Chapter 2: Time-domain input-output descriptions of LTI systems
- Derivation of convolution sum
- Computation of convolution sum (theory)
- Computation of convolution sum (recipe and example)
- Derivation of convolution integral
- Computation of convolution integral (theory)
- Computation of convolution integral (recipe and example)
- Properties of convolution
- Convolution of special signals
  - Step input
  - Sinusoidal input
  - Finite length inputs to finite impulse response discrete-time systems.
  - This group of slides has not scanned well. See folder in library for photocopied versions.
- Differential and Difference Equations
Chapter 3: Fourier Representations
- Basic definitions and properties (see folder in library)
- More properties of Fourier Representations
Chapter 4: Applications of Fourier Representations
- Frequency Response of LTI Systems
- Fourier Transform representations of periodic signals
- Sampling
  - part 1,
  - WARNING: the following are approx 3 MB files for one page as bit maps because pdf conversion did not work. part 2a, part 2b. I've had no trouble reading these files with Explorer, but I haven't been able to get Netscape to do the job.
  - part 3,
  - Reconstruction,
Chapter 6: Laplace Transforms
- Introduction
- One page bit map on rational functions
- Poles, Zeros and Regions of convergence
- Properties of the Laplace Transform
- Laplace Transform Analysis of Signals and Systems
Chapter 7: z-Transforms
- In the library. Scans coming soon.
Chapter 9: Control Systems
I have finally bought myself a scanner, and these are my first attempts at using it. The slides are of moderate quality, but are accurate. The loss of quality is due to jpeg compression artifacts in the postscript to pdf conversion. When I am able to adjust these settings I will produce some new files. In the mean time, these are not too bad when printed out.
- Introduction (The first page is blank, but all the slides are there.)
- The closed loop
- Steady-state error
- Transient response
- Time domain specifications
- Stability
- Root Locus
- Root Locus, Example 1
- Root Locus, Example 2
- Effects of zeros
- Non-linear systems
