Digital sounds and images are used everywhere today, and they are all generated originally by analogue signals. On the other hand, in digital signal processing, the storage or transmission of digital data, such as music, videos or image files, necessitates converting such analogue signals into digital signals via sampling. When these data are sampled, the values from the discrete, sampled points are kept while the information between the sampled points is lost. Various techniques have been developed over the years to recover this lost data, but the results remain incomplete. Professor Yutaka Yamamoto's research is focused on improving how we can recover or reconstruct the original analogue data.

Digital signal processing (DSP) is an area of science and engineering that has been rapidly developed over the past years. This rapid development is a result of significant advances in digital computers technology and integrated circuits fabrication (Mitra, 2005; Smith, 2002). Classical digital signal processing structures belong to the class of single-rate systems since the sampling rates at all points of the system are the same. The process of converting a signal from a given rate to a different rate is called sampling rate conversion. Systems that employ multiple sampling rates in the processing of digital signals are called multirate digital signal processing systems. Sample rate conversion is one of the main operations in a multirate system (Harris, 2004; Stearns, 2002).

Signals carrying information are encoded in molecular vibrational waves (vibronics) rather than in electric currents as widely done in microelectronics. We demonstrate theoretically that signals can be transmitted along a long polypeptide molecule; the signal is modulated in a terahertz carrier corresponding to a frequency of an intrinsic vibrational mode of the backbone of the polypeptide, via amplitude and frequency modulations. The modulated carrier is coupled as a vibrational wave to the polypeptide at one end of the molecule and propagates for more than 168 Å towards the other end. Digital signal processing techniques are used to recover the modulated signals.

Conversion of signals is fundamental to theinterfacing of embedded systems. Such signal conversionsinclude (i) analog-to digital (A/D) in order to translate ananalog form of the signal to its sampled and quantized formfor digital signal processing, (ii) digital-to-analog (D/A) inorder to translate the digital samples to a correspondingboxcar signal for further low-pass filtering and recovery ofthe original signal, and (iii) digital-to-digital (D/D) toachieve new desired properties of the data.This paper focuses on teaching the delta-sigma (ΔΣ)A/D conversion that is often omitted from an interfacingcourse because it appears to be a difficult topic tocomprehend and to teach. This new approach links the newΔΣ conversion to the other classes of A/D conversiontechniques explicitly, thus unifying and simplifying theteaching of signal conversions.

The term digital signal is a term from a technology that converts an analog signal into digital data so that the signal can be processed more easily and quickly. The term digital itself is a system that only recognizes two conditions. The two conditions are usually represented by the numbers zero and one, on and off, or others. The smallest unit of digital signal is the bit.

Digital signal processing and machine learning require digital data which can be processed by algorithms on computer. However, most of the real-world signals that we observe are real numbers, occurring at real time values. This means that it is impossible in practice to store these signals on a computer and we must find some approximate signal representation which is amenable to finite, digital storage. This chapter describes the main methods which are used in practice to solve this representation problem.
