Requirements
The course includes a number of partly elective small projects or laboratory exercises. For each of the chosen exercises, the required exercise work and reporting must be completed in an acceptable way.
Completion parts must belong to the same implementation
Learning Outcomes
After successfully completing the course, a student will be able to understand the basic behavior of the lower-layer functional blocks of communication systems, implement and test the needed algorithms/subsystems using common simulation tools, and implement them in digital hardware or using programmable processors. He will also be able to evaluate and compare the performance of different algorithms/subsystems in terms of communication theoretic performance, implementation complexity and energy consumption.
Content
| Content | Core content | Complementary knowledge | Specialist knowledge |
| 1. | The course contains several partly elective modules, each focusing on a specific topic. Each module may contain introductory lectures, small literature study projects, design and simulation exercises, and laboratory measurement tasks. |
Instructions for students on how to achieve the learning outcomes
Quality of the exercise solutions / simulation studies / laboratory exercise work and quality of the reporting of the exercises.
Assessment scale:
Numerical evaluation scale (1-5) will be used on the course
Partial passing:
Additional information about prerequisites
Good skills in performing electronic measurements is a mandatory background for taking the course.
The required theoretical background knowledge depends on the chosen exercises, and typically includes most of the mandatory courses in the Digital Communication Circuits and Systems (Tietoliikenteen digitaalitekniikat) Major. The course is targeted to the students of this specific major, but it is open to all students with sufficient background knowledge in this multidisciplinary field.

| This project seminar implementation includes two mandatory elements: * LabVIEW/USRP Exercises: The logistics of this part are handled under the course ELT-42006 Special Assignment in Communications Engineering 1. Please check the POPpage of that course. The exercises start on Wednesday, March 25. * Selected RF-measuremement/communication system related lab exercises from the course ELT-43506 Communication Systems Laboratory Course.
