Analog and Digital Signal Processing

Abstract:
Electronic processing of signals is done in some fashion to extract some useful information from them, usually leading to measurements about the source of signals. Primary signals may be of different types – short and fast random pulses, trains of pulses, slowly varying continuous pulses and so on. Some of the common challenges in signal processing are the number of channels, amplitude, rise time and frequency of signals. Modern signal processing techniques employ advanced hardware components such as ASICs, FPGAs, DSPs, GPUs and other custom built hardware along with highly sophisticated algorithms. A pedagogical review of classical to modern signal processing techniques will be attempted in this session.

About the speaker:

Dr. B.Satyanarayana did his B.Tech in Electronics and Communication Engineering from J.N.T.University, Hyderabad and Ph.D. in Physics from IIT Bombay. Dr. Satyanarayana is working in the Department of High Energy Physics, TIFR since 1983 – is currently a Scientific Officer (G). His areas of interest include ‘Detectors and Instrumentation for high energy and nuclear physics’. He worked on many major experiments, including a series of underground experiments at Kolar Gold Fields, D-Zero experiment at Fermilab, Chicago and CMS experiment on LHC at CERN, Geneva. He is fully engaged for the past decade and a half in building a mega science experiment called ICAL at the proposed India-based Neutrino Observatory near Madurai.

Dr. Satyanarayana is a Fellow of Institution of Electronics and Telecommunication Engineers and Institute of Engineers. He is a Member of Instrument Society of India, Indian Physics Association as well as a Senior Member of IEEE. He was a member of the Governing Council, Instrument Society of India and is currently a member of the Executive Committee, IEEE Bombay Section and its Technical and Professional Activities Chair (TPAC).

Dr. Satyanarayana has published 150 research papers and proceedings in national and international journals and conferences and delivered scores of invited talks. His first paper has won the best paper award by the Institution of Electronics and Telecommunication Engineers.
