Biosignals may be characterized as bioelectrical signals which can be composed of both electrical and non-electrical parts. Topics include both linear and nonlinear systems, signal conditioning or filtering, improving signal quality (signal-to-noise ratio) through averaging techniques, and signal representations in both the time and frequency domains. Graduate-level project will be required as defined in consultation with the instructor. This course is not eligible for the PhD-SDE program. Cross-level listed with ENGN 4830; credit cannot be received for both courses.
