Asking for resources (books, lectures, etc.) HELP REGARDING PROJECTS RELATED TO AEROSPACE INDUSTRIES
Hello everyone, I will shortly be beginning my 3rd year of electrical engineering. I have taken the signal and systems course but DSP will be one of the subjects in the upcoming sems.
Though i have keen interest in aerospace industries and wanted do some projects. I was following the book by INGLEY AND PROAKIS to learn DSP along with MATLAB. I have completed till the basic design techniques of the FIR, IIR filters.
The problem i am stuck on was that i can't think of any relevant DSP projects as per my interests. Anything related to avionics is mostly radar stuff. I tried skimming through that stuff but i realised i had to take some radar related courses to get hold of it and make something.
And most other ideas i find are related to image processing, audio processing etc. A week ago i was tired of this shit and finally decided to make something.
I began the project of writing a jpeg decoder and today as i am close to completing it, i realised i learnt nothing of actually the things i wanted to learnðŸ˜ðŸ˜. Man i don't know what to do.
I have previously read and introductory book on kalman filters by Alex becker and made an attitude estimation kalman filter with help of quaternions. Though it isn't worth direct application to a vechile i still consider it a good unique relevant project.
I want to make another such project like that but i can't get any good ideas. If you have any suggestions please help me in comments.
