A DSP laboratory designed for teaching fundamental concepts

The senior level digital signal processing (DSP) course at North Carolina State University is designed to teach basic methods of describing and analyzing digital signals and systems. In order to reinforce this approach, the laboratory is designed to demonstrate DSP concepts with actual signals and systems. The lab requires no programming but gives the student the opportunity to see the application of theory by manipulating and analyzing real signals. The basis for the lab is a dual channel, multiple scope software package that allows the student simultaneous viewing of time domain and frequency domain signals
