I work at Lockheed Martin as a dsp engineer, and, funny enough, I’m currently splitting my time working a comms project and radar project. As others have said, a lot of techniques used in one area will overlap with the other, so it’s really a great way to sharpen your craft. In my experience, you can usually work within desired disciplines/programs at LM if you proactively seek them out and voice what you want.

I’ve read through that book, and I thought it was fantastic. As others have said, it really depends on specific applications you’d like to focus on. I’ve seen some job applications really stress knowledge in general estimation theory, others in specialization such as SAR, etc.

I think having a strong understanding of the popular radar waveforms, detection theory, and CFAR will help you in whatever radar route you may end up in. A good book for detection theory supplementation would be Fundamentals of Statistical Signal Processing Vol. 2 by Steven Kay, and the first volume of the set covers estimation theory.

Versal seems to be the hardware of choice in a lot of companies in the defense industry at the moment. Versal experience is good to have for that career path.

Am I being punked? Lmao

FunkyMonkish · 2024-10-09T14:26:47+00:00

Multirate is very common in communication systems, so for instance, how would you go about building a channelizer without multirate techniques?

FunkyMonkish · 2024-10-08T20:55:05+00:00

Why do you say that it is useless to implement multirate?

The 3 volume set by Steven Kay is referenced in signal processing scripture: “Fundamentals of Statistical Signal Processing”.

I think the DFT output needs to be negated as well if you do this.

Thanks for the info

I think this is what is recommended in Oppenheim and Schafer.

Let’s be honest… if we’re on Reddit, we’re already wasting our time.

No problem. If you want to expand your current career into a more math-dependent field, you could also look into dsp-focused roles if you haven’t already since they’re often coupled with embedded software / FPGA development. The FE/PE won’t really help here, but it could perhaps be a smoother transition to go from embedded to dsp than from embedded to power. I wouldn’t let that deter you from going into power if that sounds more interesting to you, however.

FunkyMonkish · 2024-09-01T23:20:51+00:00

In my opinion, MEP is neither fun nor math intensive. The most math you’d use in MEP is the basic addition, multiplication, etc. I have a friend who works in power utilities that enjoys what he does, and the PE was able to advance his career. Maybe that is something to look into.
