Abstract

Over the last 30 years, adaptive digital signal processing has progressed from being a topic for a strictly graduate-level advanced class in signal processing theory to one that is part of the core curriculum for many undergraduate classes in signal processing. The key reason is the continued advance of communications technology, with its need for echo control and equalisation, and the widespread use of adaptive filters in audio, biomedical, and control applications. This paper reviews the basic theory and applications of adaptive signal processing and also presents information on multimedia teaching methods that are being used on a 24 hour course module on adaptive signal processing. In particular it presents some recent World Wide Web Java programs that were developed for teaching and self-study. Information is provided on how to download and run the Java applet
