Learning Outcomes
Special course on multicarrier (OFDM, OFDMA, SC-FDMA, FBMC, DMT) and multiantenna/MIMO techniques and their applications to terrestrial radio and TV transmission, mobile communication systems, and digital subscriber line modems. After completing the course, a student has in-depth knowledge about multicarrier and multiantenna techniques and their applications in current and emerging broadband communication systems.
