About

This Electronics - signal processing, control and communications module from The Open University UK takes the ideas that you know about basic electronic circuits, together with general engineering principles, and looks at three of the main applications of electronics. It comprises three blocks: signal processing, control and communications.

Overview

This module teaches industrially relevant skills in the application of analogue and digital electronics to signal processing, control and communications.

Signal processing looks at the ways both analogue and/or digital filters can remove noise from signals.

Control shows how using feedback and a suitable controller can change the dynamic behaviour of processes (electronic/mechanical or other) to meet a desired criterion. Communication shows how cables and radio waves can communicate data.
