Welcome to Basics of Digital Signal Processing at StarkEffects.com
Notes on modern computer processing of analog and digital signals. Deriving information from experiments or physical measurements in real time —or near real time —requires rapid processing of electrical signals as they are input to a computer interface. Following are my notes on algorithms and methods for processing those signals.
