Fall semester 2023. This course is a 3-hour course that provides an in-depth exploration of discrete-time signal processing. The objective learning are: (1) analyze the performance of discrete-time signal processing (DSP) algorithms; (2) recognize appropriate approaches to analyze in the frequency and time domains; (3) design new algorithms for given signal processing tasks, and discuss the performance of such algorithms; (4) evaluate the relative advantages and disadvantages of competing implementations to solve the same problems; and (5) implement common signal processing algorithms in MATLAB, and interpret the results of processing signals with these programs.
Spring semester 2021. This course is a 3-hour course. Introduction to Matlab programming techniques through implementation of relevant engineering application.
Spring semester 2020-2022. This course is a 3-hour course. Topics that are included: phasor review, transmission lines, vector analysis, electro-statics, magneto-statics, Maxwell’s equations, plane wave propagation and wave reflection and transmission.
Fall semester 2019 and 2021. This course provides an introduction to electro-optical (e.g. photonic) theory, devices and systems. Approximately, half of the course is devoted to optical theory and the remaining part is devoted to applications (e.g. devices and systems) commonly used in optical communications systems, scientific and medical sensor. Topics that are included: ray optics, diffraction, interferometry, polarization, crystal optics, luminescence, photelectric effects, photon optics and an introduction to liquid crystal displays (LCDs), light sources (laser and LED diodes) and photodetectors.
Fall semester 2020. This course reviews Fourier techniques for analysis and design of linear systems, extension to 2-dimensional techniques, 2-dimensional transform applied to linear optical systems and optical data processing.
Fall semester 2022. During this course, students will be introduced to the main concepts in lens design. Topics covered include first-order optics, optical aberrations, achromatic doublets, optical relays, lens tolerances, and designing with off-the-shelf lenses, miniature lenses, and zoom lenses. The course also covers how to analyze different lens-based systems.
First semester 2013/14. An introduction to advanced techniques for invasive clinical diagnosis based on knowledge introduced in the Optics and Visual Perception matters, emphasizing the principles of design of devices and the requirements for proper use.
Second semester 2014/15. The contents of this course are essential for the development of the profession of optical optometrist, as it lays down the laws and mechanisms of formation of images in the instruments used in optometric practice. Its development is based on geometrical optics in establishing the laws of image formation in optical systems and the physiological optics are studied in the human visual system characteristics and the imaging system. The subject is related to physical optics, especially in regard to resolving power of the instruments and the use of polarizing elements.
