Course Outcomes:

At the end of the course, students will be able to:

• Analyze the different types of signals and systems.

• Determine the linearity, causality, time-invariance and stability properties of continuous and discrete time systems.

• Represent continuous and discrete systems in time and frequency domain using different transforms Test whether the system is stable.

 

Question paper pattern:

• Examination will be conducted for 100 marks with question paper containing 10 full questions, each of 20 marks.

• Each full question can have a maximum of 4 sub questions.

• There will be 2 full questions from each module covering all the topics of the module.

• Students will have to answer 5 full questions, selecting one full question from each module.

• The total marks will be proportionally reduced to 60 marks as SEE marks is 60.
