Digital Communications
The course introduces the fundamentals of digital signaling, information theory and coding, digital transmission and reception. Topics include sampling and time-division multiplexing, baseband digital signals and systems, pulse code modulation, error control, digital modulation systems, information measure and source encoding, and introduction to spread spectrum communications.
Develop and conduct appropriate experimentation and/or simulation, analyze and interpret data, assess and evaluate findings, and use statistical analyses and objective engineering judgment to draw conclusions.Use creative, innovative and flexible thinking and acquire entrepreneurial and leadership skills to anticipate and respond to new situations.Classify and evaluate the applications and market segments in the ICT market to create a specific ICT product including estimation of the required resources.Assess and evaluate the characteristics, performance, cost benefit analysis failure of components, systems’ reliability and processes to solve engineering problems, often based on limited and possibly contradicting information.Illustrate the key performance indicators in communication systems and networks and analyze the performance of analog and digital communication systems, as well as wireless and optical communication systems and communication networks Use appropriate specialized software packages, write computer programs, and use relevant laboratory equipment for the analysis and design of electronics and communications components and systems
