HOMEWORK:

HWs must be turned in at the beginning of class on the due date. Solutions will be provided - therefore late HWs can not be accepted.

LAB:

Lab will meet every week. The lab will consist of computer-based exercises using MATLAB. You must bring your laptop to the lab, with MATLAB installed on your computer. Lab reports must be turned in the following week at the beginning of the lab hour. Students may work together on the labs, however, each student must write up their lab report on their own. Part of the grade for the lab component will be based on your progress during the lab session. In addition, two lab quizzes will be given. The first lab quiz will cover elementary MATLAB commands. The second lab quiz will cover concepts from lectures and labs together with MATLAB usage.

SOFTWARE:

MATLAB is a required software package for this course. Students registered for this course can have MATLAB installed on their laptop computer by the laptop office staff. Otherwise, the student version of MATLAB is available online at www.mathworks.com or at the bookstore (about $110). You will also need the Signal Processing Toolbox (an extra $30).

MATLAB manuals are available in PDF format at www.mathworks.com. For example, the guide Getting started with Matlab is available at the following URL.
