Synopsis:

The course is dedicated to methods for preprocessing, digitalization and

reconstruction of continuis signals. It is focused to the methods for achieving of high precision of transmission and suppression of

spurious components. The laboratory exercises are divided into two parts: th first part are classical tasks; the second one are individual project of design of typically data acqusition system. The teaching is supported by the CAD system for measuring circuits.
