Learning Outcomes

The goal is to strengthen the communication theoretic basis for advanced wireless system development. After completing the course, a student has gained in-depth expertise in selected timely topics in the field of wireless communication waveforms, signal processing functions, and coding methods.

Content

Content Core content Complementary knowledge Specialist knowledge
1. Review of linear digital modulation methods using the signal space concepts. Frequency-domain equalization methods.     
2. Basics of statistical signal processing and detection and estimation theory with application in channel estimation and equalization.  Deeper understanding of detection and estimation theory.   
3. Diversity concepts. Multiantenna and MIMO system concepts.  Deeper understanding of MIMO techniques.   
4. Iterative detection and decoding methods and receiver structures; multiuser detection, turbo codes, LDPC codes.  Deeper understanding of advanced detection and decoding methods.   

Instructions for students on how to achieve the learning outcomes

The assessment is primarily based on the exam, which is targeted to measuring the knowledge gained in the core contents. Also the quality of mandatory exercise and project returns and optional homeworks affect the grading.

Assessment scale:

Numerical evaluation scale (1-5) will be used on the course

Partial passing:

Completion parts must belong to the same implementation
