Hello,

My name is Dhruv Vats, and I'm in the final year of my engineering studies, majoring in Electronics and Communications.

While browsing the GSoC ideas page of SciPy, I came across this project, which, from what I checked, went unallocated this year.

The project lists Digital Signal Processing as a requirement, and while my coursework (DSP, Communications Systems, Control Theory, etc.) has given me a decent familiarity with the subject, I further got to use its concepts during my GSoC project this year, which involved investigating, implementing and integrating the DPSS multitaper periodogram into Stingray, using scipy.signal at its core.

Therefore, if the context is correct, I would like to request permission to work on this and would love the opportunity to further discuss the project, such as,

What the first steps should be?
What parts of code should I start looking at?
How can it be divided into smaller, more manageable tasks?
What the result could look like? (A brief description is provided on the ideas page.)

And most importantly,

How do you guys see this coming together?

This is my first time posting to the mailing list, so hoping it wasn't too blunt.

Humble regards,

Dhruv Vats
