ELT-41307 Communication Theory, 7 cr

Implementation ELT-41307 2016-01

Description

This course focuses on the most fundamental elements, processing methods and laws and boundaries stemming from the nature that are encountered in all communication systems (Internet, mobile networks, WLANs/WiFi, etc.). These include the concepts of filtering and modulation and phenomena like noise, distortion and interference. Also fundamental information theoretic bounds applicable to all communication systems are covered, and how they are related to fundamental concepts like bandwidth, energy and noise power.

Lessons
