The goals of this project are to use MATLAB to
investigate the use of the Discrete Fourier Transform (DFT) for the
spectral analysis of time series. The above document contains the instructions
needed to aid in your explorations. Several files will be needed in this
project. They are listed below. For those not familiar with MATLAB,
there are some additional help files listed below including Dr. Herman's
Wiki called
MATLAB a brief introduction for students. (Some additional
information will be posted there specific to this project, including
more on the files below.)
You will keep track of
your observations with your partner and submit the results on the last
class day in report form. This project will count as your computer
lab/project grade for the course.
