Adaptive Signal Processing
COURSE OBJECTIVE
To introduce some practical aspects of signal processing, and in particular adaptive systems. Current applications for adaptive systems are in the fields of communications, radar, sonar, seismology, navigation systems and biomedical engineering. This course will present the basic principles of adaptation, will cover various adaptive signal processing algorithms (e.g., the LMS algorithm) and many applications, such as adaptive noise cancellation, interference canceling, system identification, etc.
