Aim
The course gives the knowledge of implementation of digital signal processing algorithms in digital signal processors. Also, the course emphasis the problems that occur in real time digital signal processing and evaluate the performance of the implementations.

Contents
Digital signal processing can be found in a wide range of applications, such as acoustic signal processing, biomedical signal processing and communications. The students are divided into groups of two to four persons and choose a subject among the given proposed projects. Then, the work is to implement their solution to the actual problem in a DSP (and in Matlab). The course starts with some prepared laboratory works where the students test the DSP environment. During the course, we have one meeting every week between the students and the supervisors. The result of the project work is presented in a written report as well as orally at the end of the course.
