OBJECTIVES:

• To introduce the basic notions of vector spaces which will then be used to solve related problems.
• To understand the concepts of vector space, linear transformations , inner product spaces and orthogonalization.
• To provide necessary basic concepts in probability and random processes for applications such as random signals, linear systems in communication engineering.
• To provide necessary basics in probability that are relevant in applications such as random signals, linear systems in communication engineering.
• To understand the basic concepts of probability, one and two dimensional random.
• variables and to introduce some standard distributions applicable to engineering which can describe real life phenomenon.
