Biosignal processing and analysis is generally perceived by many students to be a challenging topic to understand, and to become adept with the necessary analytical skills. This is a direct consequence of the high mathematical content involved, and the many abstract features of the topic. The MATLAB and Mathcad software packages offer an excellent algorithm development environment for teaching biosignal processing and analysis modules, and can also be used effectively in many biosignal, and indeed bioengineering, research areas. In this paper, traditional introductory and advanced biosignal processing (and analysis) syllabi are reviewed, and the use of MATLAB and Mathcad for teaching and research is illustrated with a number of examples.
许多学生普遍认为生物信号处理与分析是一个难以理解且难以熟练掌握必要分析技能的具有挑战性的主题。这是该主题所涉及的高数学内容以及众多抽象特征的直接结果。MATLAB和Mathcad软件包为教授生物信号处理与分析模块提供了出色的算法开发环境，并且还能有效地用于许多生物信号以及生物工程研究领域。本文回顾了传统的生物信号处理（与分析）基础及进阶课程大纲，并通过多个示例说明了MATLAB和Mathcad在教学与研究中的应用。
