What math is used in DSP?
Mathematics and physics of the underlying processes need to be understood, modeled and finally controlled. To be able to perform these tasks, some knowledge of trigonometric functions, complex numbers, complex analysis, linear algebra, and statistical methods is required.
What math is used in signals and systems?
Operations on signals that affect amplitude follow the basic mathematical operations: addition and multiplication. The addition of two signals results in a signal that has their summed amplitudes at every time step.
