Western Michigan University (WMU) has added real-time signal processing laboratory experiments into the existing undergraduate digital signal processing (DSP) course, ECE 455. This has come about in response to industrial demands for students with more real-time, realworld experience, not just theory and computer simulations. In the laboratory, students work directly with audio signal sources, TI DSP based evaluation modules and development tools, and write software for real-time operations. This approach helps the students to better understand the application of the DSP concepts learned. Working with real-time signal processing at the undergraduate level has proven to be a challenge for both students and instructors. This paper discusses the real-time DSP laboratory and enumerates the opportunities and challenges associated with teaching real-time, hands-on signal processing to undergraduate students.
