The mathematical definition of ‘not blowing up’ is that
there is an Element of M (an element of R, positive valued) Such that for all time, the absolute value of y(t) is less than M.
An LTI system is BIBO Stable iff:
There exists some M, an element of R, such that the integral of the absolute value [...]
This week we built a MATLAB program to play Smoke on the Water.
We used this chart to map the notes to frequencies (http://www.phy.mtu.edu/~suits/notefreqs.html) . Afterward, we had to echo the signal through convolution, so we multiplied a decaying exponential by square wave that we raised by its amplitude in order to create a decaying echo. [...]
Several students were absent today, so Baraniuk polled the class to see how many people might have swine flu or have attended the Career Fair. Seeing the Career Fair as more threatening than H1N1 Flu, Baraniuk advocated the pursuit of graduate studies and suggested that undergraduate degrees are becoming commoditized and that BSEEs end up [...]
Energy says very little about peak magnitude, but both are important considerations.
Generalized Energy: Norms (Energy is a norm with p=2), Integral is normal of absolute value, Infinite Norm returns the maximum value or the essential supremum.
Power is the norm per unit of time. Watts are Joules per second.
Unit Pulse
Unit Step

Hello. I’m Jacob Poteet. This is a picture of me.
Classes this week set an expectation of what material we will encounter this semester and what methods we should use to master it.
On Tuesday, Baraniuk emphasized the importance of analyzing learning needs and developing strategies that incorporate them. He also cited evidence that group work improves retention and understanding, and argued that taking notes from [...]
