Hands-on exposure to signal processing concepts using the SPC toolbox
Abstract
We present an interactive software package developed
to complement and facilitate the teaching of digital
signal processing (DSP) concepts in various courses. The Signal
Processing and Communications (SPC) software takes advantage
of graphical user interface (GUI) capabilities contained in MATLABB.
SPC is a window-based, user-friendly tool that allows
users to develop digital filters, analyze signals, and easily design
basic signal modeling tools without requiring the user to have
strong coding abilities or be very familiar with MATLAB. To
illustrate how SPC can be used in the classroom, we present
applications of the SPC Toolbox that were used in two courses
at the Naval Postgraduate School-Discrete System and Digital
Signal Processing.
