4. Labs  Schedule  Tue 16:00-18:00 (weeks 3,6,8,9,10) (ITL Top Floor)  Extra lecture tomorrow (Tue) 16:00-18:00 ENG251  Labs 1.Review of MATLAB, signals and systems theory 2.IIR filtering (J’adore) 3.FIR filtering 4.Spectral leakage: You may already have been affected 5.Adaptive filtering  MCQ (week 12)

5. Labs  Lab Assistant  Pablo Duran, Francisco Algarra  Reinforce lectures + additional material (all examinable)  MCQ test will NOT cover MATLAB  MATLAB is not needed on exam  Attendance registered at every lab session  Why prepare labs well?  be familiar with MATLAB programming environment  be comfortable using integrated MATLAB help system to learn standard functions, programming constructs…  best guide to subject material are lab sheets, supported by their lecture notes  familiarize yourself with lab sheets before class

6. House Rules  Lectures:  Lectures start promptly (5 minutes grace time)  If late, please wait outside for suitable time to join  Phones silent; no distractions (messaging, Facebook/Twitter, newspapers, magazines, …)  Participate & ask questions; I don’t bite!  There are no stupid questions, there is only stupid silent ignorance.  Take notes  Helps to concentrate  All material is examinable  Labs:  Be prepared: no time to cover MATLAB essentials during lab time  Any issues on lab preparation: contact Teaching Assistant

7. Want a good grade? Attend the lectures I might give hints Attend and study the labs They supplement the main material Study lecture notes Primary source Study the text I’ll tell you which sections are most important Many questions could be straight from the text Work through any problems I suggest I’ll provide study guides Browse additional materials  To be provided on class website
