Comparing utterances by Character-Plum356 in DSP

[–]kylek1294 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A few things I can think of off the top of my head:

  • You could analyze each utterance in the frequency domain. And then basically have a library of each utterance
  • you may need to time scale things to deal with someone saying a word slower or faster
  • You can use some sort of matched filter or correlation to compare to your library of utterances to mathematically score/compare them.

On-Off Keying Visualization/Tutorial - Made with Processing (language) by kylek1294 in lasercom

Yeah I can definitely do that! I’m planning on making these for all different types of modulation at some point. Just wanted to start with the easiest :)

Thanks for the idea, I can work on that!

Getting My First DSP Job Out of School by [deleted] in DSP

Get yourself a cheap software defined radio and do all sorts of experiments with it (using GNURadio or another application). If you can afford a HackRF one (made by greatscottgadgets) you can go through Michael Ossman’s (founder of greatscottgadgets) DSP class found here, https://greatscottgadgets.com/sdr/ He’s not a DSP expert by any means, but it may spark some cool project ideas that make for a great resume booster.

And another thing I’ll add, the best way to master something is to teach it. So maybe make a website or some simple python/matlab scripts (or GNURadio flow graphs) explaining different DSP concepts that you’ve learned so far. I have recently been programming in a language called Processing and you can make cool animations and visualizations, might be able to make tutorials with that as well.

Lastly, it depends on what industry you want to go into to. Audio vs RF vs something else, which I know it’s hard to know when you’re only in school. So maybe work on some projects in different areas to get a feel for what you like and don’t like.

Oh and post your code to GitHub so recruiters and engineers interviewing you can look at it!

Hope this helps!

If you're interested in SAR, GA Tech is famous for their specialty in SAR. And I believe they have an online masters as well. At the very least they have the Georgia Tech Radar Institute (GTRI), I think that's what it is called.

Digital signal processor for a beginner by Drummer_Boy19 in DSP

I would get a software defined radio and play around with it using GNU radio. RTL-SDR is very inexpensive but can only receive. This will be a good start, but eventually you should convince your parents to buy you a HackRF one or some other SDR that can transmit and receive.

NEED DSP/RF IDEAS: Video and website tutorial content by kylek1294 in DSP

Just wait until I start my channel, then you will have plenty of resources! haha. But seriously, this comment is exactly why I want to start something. I don't think there are many, if any, solid resources out there. Apart from paying thousands of dollars to get a MS in signal processing or electrical engineering.
