San José State University College of Engineering, EE Department EE112, Linear Systems, Spring 2012 Instructor: Avtar Singh Office Location: Eng 361 Telephone: (408) 924-3924 Email: [email protected] Office Hours: MW: 16:30 – 19:00 Class Days/Time: MW: 15:00 – 16:15 Classroom: Eng 345 Prerequisites: EE98 with a grade of C or better, EE101, Math133A Course Description Advanced study of linear discrete and continuous systems. Laplace transforms and Z transforms. Convolution. System functions and frequency response, Fourier series and Fourier transforms. Discrete and fast Fourier transforms. Course Goals and Student Learning Objectives (This course provides an introduction to linear time-invariant (LTI) systems. It introduces signals and systems, both discrete and continuous, for representing and manipulating in the time domain. Laplace and Z-transforms are covered as tools to solve linear systems for characterization in the frequency domain and for computing time domain responses to input signals. Fourier series and Fourier transform are covered to understand the relationship between the time domain and the frequency domain representation. Course Content Learning Outcomes Upon successful completion of this course, students will be able to: LO1 Analyze a system and determine if it is linear, time-variant, causal, and/or stable (a) LO2 Perform convolution in the time domain to compute response of a LTI system (a)LO3 Apply Laplace transform to solve linear differential equations (a, k) LO4 Apply Z-transform to solve linear difference equations (a, k) LO5 Analyze a periodic signal, using Fourier series, to determine its frequency contents (a, k) LO6 Analyze a signal, using Fourier transform, to determine its frequency contents (a, k) LO7 Analyze a system transfer function for its poles and zeros (a, k)LO8 Determine frequency response of a system (a, k) LO9 Use MATLAB to analyze a system both in the time and in the frequency domains, to do convolution for time domain response of a system, determine frequency response of a system, and analyze a signal for its frequency contents (k) ABET outcomes The letters in parentheses in the course learning objectives refer to ABET criterion 3 outcomes satisfied by the course.

Classroom Protocol Students are expected to participate actively in class. Students will turn their cell phones off or put them on vibrate mode while in class. They will not answer their phones in class. Dropping and Adding Students are responsible for understanding the policies and procedures about add/drops, academic renewal, etc. Information on add/drops are available at http://info.sjsu.edu/web-dbgen/narr/soc-fall/rec-298.html. Information about late drop is available at http://www.sjsu.edu/sac/advising/latedrops/policy/ . Students should be aware of the current deadlines and penalties for adding and dropping classes. Assignments and Grading Policy There will be three midterm exams and a final exam. Just two of the three midterms will be used in the grade computation, lowest score midterm will be dropped. Exams will cover the assigned reading material and the material covered in class lectures. There will be no make-up exam. Exam solutions will be discussed in the class after the exam. Homework will be assigned and solutions will be provided. Selected homework assignments may be collected or a quiz may be given for grading.

Your own commitment to learning, as evidenced by your enrollment at San Jose State University and the University’s integrity policy, require you to be honest in all your academic course work. Faculty members are required to report all infractions to the office of Student Conduct and Ethical Development. The website for Student Conduct and Ethical Development is available at http://www.sa.sjsu.edu/judicial_affairs/index.html. Instances of academic dishonesty will not be tolerated. Cheating on exams or plagiarism (presenting the work of another as your own, or the use of another person’s ideas without giving proper credit) will result in a failing grade and sanctions by the University. For this class, all assignments are to be completed by the individual student unless otherwise specified. If you would like to include in your assignment any material you have submitted, or plan to submit for another class, please note that SJSU’s Academic Policy F06-1 requires approval of instructors.
