  • Find the response of LTI systems by convolution
  • Use Fourier series and Fourier transforms to analyse signals in the frequency domain
  • Use the Laplace transform to analyse continuous-time LTI systems
  • Use the Z-transform to analyse discrete-time systems
  • Apply the sampling theorem and explain aliasing

Who it is for

  • B.Tech Electronics & Communication Engineering students of Semester 3 under AKTU
  • Students preparing for AKTU examinations and GATE signals and systems

What you need

  • Engineering Mathematics I and II (calculus, complex numbers, differential equations)

Questions

Which syllabus is followed?

The current AKTU (Dr. A.P.J. Abdul Kalam Technical University, Lucknow) B.Tech syllabus of Signals and Systems (Electronics & Communication Engineering, Semester 3). If your university or college follows a different syllabus, the centre teaches from your own university syllabus.

How is the subject examined?

AKTU assesses it through sessional tests, assignments and attendance, and an end-semester university examination; the centre covers every unit with theory, derivations and numericals.

Are previous-year questions practised?

Yes. Unit-wise AKTU previous-year questions, short-answer questions and the test series are solved in class.
