The provided course offers a comprehensive quick guide to the field of Signals and Systems, defining core concepts like signals and systems alongside their various classifications, such as continuous vs. discrete or linear vs. non-linear. A significant portion of the material focuses on transform analysis, detailing the mathematical tools used to study these entities, including the Fourier Series, Fourier Transform, Laplace Transform, and Z-Transform, complete with their properties, conditions for existence, and concepts like the Region of Convergence (ROC). Furthermore, the guide covers essential operations like convolution and correlation, signal properties such as sampling and the Nyquist rate, and system characteristics like causality and stability.
Signals and Systems Course is based on textbook learning material by Academy Europe.

Study Hard AND Study Smart!
Dear Students,
The textbook courses by Academy Europe are targeted at providing the students with the most important aspects of the theoretical and methodical materials. In addition, the textbook courses will also focus on the philosophical background for the development and use of the theoretical background and are thus to be understood as partly complementary to the material of the course notes. It is assumed and strongly suggested that the students study and become familiar with the course notes.

- The Four Key Classifications of SystemsIn the study of signals, a system is defined as a "device or combination of devices, which can operate on signals and produces corresponding response." In simpler terms, a system takes an incoming signal, called an input or "excitation," processes it, and produces a new signal, called an output or "response." To better understand and analyze these systems, we can categorize them based on their fundamental properties and behaviors. We can classify systems using four key pairs of characteristics. Each classification acts as a "test" that reveals something fundamental about how the system operates.5
