ECE 477 - Digital Processing of Speech Signals

Credits 3
Lecture / 3 hours per week
Requirements: Prerequisite: ECE 384 and ECE 475
Applications of digital signal processing to speech signals. Course goals are to reinforce concepts learned in prerequisite courses, to introduce new tools needed to deal with time-varying signals and to have students apply what they have learned to their own voices. A semester design project is a large component of this course. Topics include a brief introduction to articulatory and acoustic phonetics, hearing and speech perception, time-domain methods for speech processing, short-time Fourier analysis, homomorphic speech processing, linear predictive coding of speech, and applications.
