Why take this course?

Do you want to learn practical digital signal processing (dsp) without confusion?


Here’s an overview of what you’re getting in this dsp on Arm processors course...


  • Understanding the foundations of signal processing without complications:

    Before going on to implement practical dsp algorithms from scratch, this course teaches you the foundation of signal processing step-by-step. We shall look at key topics in signal processing including:


             -Signal statistics and noise

             -Quantization and sampling theorem

             -Analog filter design

             -Performance metrics of the Chebyshev, Butterworth, and Bessel filters

             -Linear systems and their properties.

             -Finite Impulse Response Filters (FIR)

             -Infinite Impulse Response Filters (IIR)

             -Superposition, synthesis, and decomposition.

             -Convolution and its properties

             -Discrete Fourier Transform (DFT) and IDFT


  • Developing Digital Signal Processing Algorithms:

    We shall practically develop the signal processing algorithms we discussed in the theory class. Over here rather than use live signals we shall use some already acquired and generated signals to test our algorithms, to keep the focus on developing the algorithms and testing them, rather than signal acquisition.

    We shall develop the following algorithms:


             -Signal statistics algorithms: signal mean, signal standard deviation, signal variance

             -The Convolution algorithm

             -The Running Sum algorithm

             -The Discrete Fourier Transform (DFT) algorithm

             -The Inverse Discrete Fourier Transform (IDFT) algorithm


We shall also implement some of these algorithms using the CMSIS-DSP library and then compare the dynamic performance     of our algorithm to that of the ones provided by CMSIS-DSP.



  • Developing Drivers and Data Structures for Signal Acquisition:

    To be able to properly acquire signals from the external world and then apply our signal processing algorithms, we first need to develop analog-to-digital converter (ADC) drivers for acquiring the signals and appropriate data structures more storing and managing the signal. Over here we shall develop :


             -A bare-Metal ADC driver for acquiring the signal

             -A First-In-First-Out data structure for storing and managing the signal

       


  • Digital Filter Design and Implementations:

    We shall learn about the various types of digital filters available and then go on to implement them from scratch. We shall implement:


             -The Moving Average Filter

             -The Finite Impulse Response (FIR) filter

             -The Infinite Impulse Response (IIR) Filter


We shall also see how to design the filter kernel of the finite impulse response filters using Matlab.


  • Practical DSP Application on Live Signal:

    Over here, we shall apply all that we have learnt to process live signals from our microcontroller’s ADC.


This course is more than just getting the code to work. It will teach you how to ….


                                           Write Practical DSP Algorithms WITHOUT a fancy Engineering Degree

You will be able to understand the foundations of signal processing without the hassle of complex mathematical derivations.


                                                            Taken by 3000+ Students with 200+ Reviews

This course is the fully updated version of the 1st edition of the course. The first edition has been taken by over 3000 students with over 290 reviews.


Here is what what one student had to say about the course.


"The information covered in this course is exactly what I needed to learn for a new assignment. Both general information about DSP as well as how to implement things on the ARM Cortex M4."


Here is what another student had to say:


"It is exciting to see how MATLAB is used in embedded systems for signal generation and filter design. The explanation here is simple and to the point. Keeps the viewer's interest captured and avoids unnecessary details."


In summary, you really have nothing to lose. Give it a try, it comes with a full money back guarantee. Hope to see you in the course.

I was really hoping this would go into way more detail on the various CMSIS DSP functions and how you would apply them or use them, in addition to more detail on various DSP topics. There were maybe all of 3 CMSIS DSP functions discussed. Instead I ended up fast forwarding through so much painful to watch bad C coding style and typing / debugging, bad use of STM32Cube, and hand-rolling of drivers using registers (instead of using LL or HAL) and all of the boiler plate stuff (let's copy and paste a project and delete a bunch of stuff!) from video to video. It would've been way better if all that stuff was just done in advance. To any viewers who don't know how to program in C, please note that there is a LOT of bad C coding style here and you should NOT consider any of this code as good examples of how to properly code in C yourself. Note: This review is based on the updated course.

I've taken several of his classes and they are always excellent. This one is well on to proving that again.

I am quite satisfied with the course! As I am a beginner/intermediate level and need to gain experience quickly and with quality, subjects concerning Cortex-m and applied DSP techniques are welcome. I recommend this course. I would like to see, while the playlists are updated, more exploratory content regarding the CMSIS library, with useful application examples.

I'm following this course using a Linux host and the STM32CubeIDE. In place of Matlab I'm using GNU Octave. No real problems so far although I found the SWV to be unreliable. In it's place I save the input and output buffers from the filter to the host and plot them with a bit of Python in a Jupyter notebook.

POSITIVE THINGS: - A well-structured course going into DSP on the ARM Cortex-M4 in the first section, review the theory, and coding, - It shows how to configure the Keil UVision MDK which is very useful. - Good explanations of the mathematics behind the various DSP concepts, - For DSP beginners on ARM, it is a good choice to kick-off! NEGATIVE THINGS: - The lecturer seems offline at least for 1 or 2 years, so you can not ask him any questions, - Section 2 is uncompleted, and a few videos are uncompleted (62), - DSP basics should be known before the course, - All examples are simulations, the signals are completely generated by MATLAB, there is no real signal example using ADC, etc. - "Filter" section is not satisfactory, there are a few theories and examples, and comparisons. But there is no example of how to calculate a good filter for a specific scenario (for example choose a cut-off frequency, and design filter), Overall, it is a nice course for beginners or people who wants to see how to implement DSP functions on ARM... The course encourages you to dive in. It has mand negative points, but unfortunately, there is no alternative course for this content.

1) Verilen örneklerde debug kısmında Logic analyzer her zaman doğru çalışmadı bu buna sunulan çözüm yetersiz kaldı. 2) Derslerde yapılan uygulamaların Freertos'da nasıl işlendiğinin inceleneceği söylendi lakin sadece FreeRTOS nedir gibi giriş seviyesinde bilgi paylaşıldı. 3) DSP için cortexm4 yapılarından bahsediliyor ama net gerçek anlamda uygulaması güzel bir eğitim değil. Basit hazır verilerden elde edilmiş bir iki örnek gösteriliyor. Gerçek zamanlı dışardan gelen verilere dayalı bir DSP örneği göremedik çok yüzelsey. 4) Eğitimi veren kişi sorumuz olduğumuzda mesaj gönderebileceğimizi söylüyor ama son iki yılda yapılan yorumlar kısmındaki sorulara bile cevap vermemiş.

A well structured course going into DSP on the ARM Cortex-M4. Also shown, how to configure the Keil UVision MDK which is very useful. Good explanations of the Mathematics behind the various DSP concepts which makes for a full picture of the subject area, likewise the analogue side of the subject.

This course is excellent. However, you must have good theoretical knowledge of DSP and STM microcontrollers before starting this project. It will not discuss the basics.

This course has been a good refresher for some of the signal processing concepts I studied in university years ago, plus the application of those concepts using an ARM MCU, until now I've always used Matlab. What I missed the most was more coding sections to illustrate some of the things (FFT and IIR filters, generate our own filter coefficients...) those things are only theory in the course and it would be great to know where to get started in the APIs

Good starting point for CMSIS DSP, but I personally would have digged deeper into it. Might be a good idea to take this course together with the Python/Matlab one, in order to design filters using Python/Matlab and implement them using CMSIS DSP functions.-

There is nothing practical in this course, this is not a DSP my friend. He just explained the moving average filter that you don't have to pay for (lots of free videos on youtube). He only read the rest from slides. just typical of him. I bought more than 4 courses from him and wasn't happy with any.

I like the course and it was a good match for me. There were just a couple roadblocks that I ran into that need to be updated in the course.

Some video is a bit blurry, and there is some small mistakes in c code, without an explanation of fix.

Can't compile anymore due to licence restriction on kiel, so it's only good for watching videos. Video resolution is low, so it's hard to make out what was written. Don't think Author is responding to Q/A.
