Contents

In si­gnal pro­ces­sing dea­ling with noise and for­mu­la­ting mo­dels for si­gnals with ran­dom fluc­tua­ti­ons as speech or ima­ges is often a cen­tral task. The ma­the­ma­ti­cal model for such si­gnals are ran­dom pro­ces­ses. To treat such si­gnals, pro­found know­ledge of pro­ba­bi­li­ty theo­ry and ran­dom va­ria­bles is a pre­re­qui­si­te. This cour­se teaches the ma­the­ma­ti­cal me­thods that are nee­ded and based on that tre­ats esti­ma­ti­on theo­ry and de­tec­tion theo­ry as the two main to­pics.

Objectives

The stu­dents have sub­ject-spe­ci­fic know­ledge of the ma­the­ma­ti­cal tre­at­ment of sto­chas­tic mo­dels for dis­cre­te and con­ti­n­uous me­a­su­red si­gnals. The stu­dents un­der­stand the ne­ces­si­ty of sto­chas­tic si­gnal mo­dels and their re­la­ti­on to prac­tical pro­blems (me­a­su­re­ment ac­cu­ra­cy, re­lia­bi­li­ty). They have the qua­li­fi­ca­ti­on to ana­ly­ze si­gnal trans­mis­si­on and pro­ces­sing pro­blems for ran­dom si­gnals, to pro­po­se sui­ta­ble so­lu­ti­on me­thods, to ex­plain them and to im­ple­ment them in prac­tice. The stu­dents know and un­der­stand in par­ti­cu­lar re­le­vant me­thods for pa­ra­me­ter esti­ma­ti­on in si­gnal pro­ces­sing and are able to trans­fer and apply them to new pro­blems. Through the ex­er­ci­ses and com­pu­ter ex­er­ci­ses the stu­dents are enab­led to apply the ac­qui­red know­ledge in a small team in prac­tice, to ex­plain and eva­lua­te so­lu­ti­on ap­proa­ches and to re­pre­sent them with sup­porting ar­gu­ments. The im­portant basic no­men­cla­tu­re of sto­chas­tic si­gnals is also trans­la­ted to English, so that stu­dents are able to un­der­stand the in­ter­na­tio­nal li­te­ra­tu­re in the field of sta­tis­ti­cal si­gnal pro­ces­sing.
