About DSP lab

The Digital Signal Processing (DSP) Lab at NTU is set up in 1998 after Texas Instruments award the title of Texas Instruments DSP Elite Lab status to NTU.It is also the only Texas Instruments DSP Elite Lab in Singapore. The role of the TIDSP Elite Lab is to train engineers and researchers in the advanced area of real-timeDSP implementation using the Texas Instruments state-of-the-art DSP processors. Wehave since trained more than 300 students since the inception of the Elite Lab andlooking forward to work closely with TI and other companies in training futuremanpower in embedded media processing. So far, we have conducted several high-profile workshops for Texas Instruments, Analog Devices, Philips, Activemedia, and Xilinx.

The DSP Lab is also playing an important role to bring advanced DSP research work into practical realization. Over the past few years, the DSP lab has developed into awell-recognized lab in Singapore doing applied signal processing projects for the industry. We have received and delivered several research contracts from companies like Daimler Chrysler (Germany), Singapore Technologies Kinetics, Texas Instruments (USA), Analog Devices (USA), Excelpoint System, TechSource, and research agency like A*STAR. We have also been widely consulted in area in real-time DSP implementation and applications, audio and acoustics signal processing, and DSP programming. Through this industry interaction, the value-added work carried out in the DSP Lab has constantly led to further research that combines fundamental and real-time DSP issues.

Our work has also gain local and international recognitions and awards as follows:
  • Listed in the Philips “Faculty 300” Centre for Technical Training International Training Guide, 1997.
  • Won the 1st Prize in 1997/98 Texas Instruments DSP Solutions Challenge in the Asia/Japan Region, and runner up in the final round held in Seattle, USA,1998.
  • Tan Chin Tuan Research Fellowship, 1999.
  • Keynote speeches in the 3rd DSPS Conference in Japan, 2001.
  • Project being selected as the semi-finalist of the Worldwide Texas Instruments DSP and Analog Challenge, 2001.
  • Won the Institute of Engineer Singapore (IES) Prestigious Engineering Achievement Award for the project on Audio Beam, 2001.
  • Seminar presentation in Institute of Acoustics, Chinese Academy of Sciences in China to give seminar presentations, 2002.
  • Won 3rd place in the International Exhibition Contest on DSP Creative Design held in Taiwan, 2005.
  • Another project won the Creativity prize in the International Exhibition Contest on DSP Creative Design held in Taiwan, 2005..
