ELEC 301 Signals and Systems
Group Project Info
2001
Open ended investigations into application areas of signals
and systems in gangs of 3-4 members.
Deliverables:
-
A written report containing the theoretical background,
methods employed, practical application results, plus a breakdown of
each gang member's role. The report must be written in HTML and be
available on the WWW. Projects will be archived for posterity.
Length: equivalent of 10-15 pages. (50% of grade)
-
A poster presentation on your project. (50% of grade)
-
Grading will be based on the results of the work (that is, 'did it
work?'), the degree of innovation, and the quality of the written
report and poster presentation.
Milestones:
-
12 November: Set up gang (3-4 members);
choose topic and gang name.
Email Michael Lexa with this info.
-
Exam week: Written reports due; poster session.
