Language French
Place
of the course
Louvain-la-Neuve
Main themes Identical to the contents of the course
Aims At the end of this lecture, the students should be able to : - Understand and explain the performances of the main systems transmitting either analog or digital information (like for instance AM radio, FM, ADSL, digital TV, WIFI, satellite communications, etc...) - Understand, use and dimension the main modulation techniques - Model and simulate (taking into account implementation aspects) transmission systems.
Content - Basic of random signals and stochastic processes ; stationnarity, power spectral density - Signals : speech, audio, image, video, data - Noise sources and types (thermal, shot, impulsive) - Signals and systems : analytic signal, complex envelope, random signals - Decibels - Analog modulations : DSB (SC), SSB, VSB, demodulation, effect of noise, frequency change - Angular modulations : FM (narrowband and wideband), demodulation, noise effect, capture, threshold effect - Superheterodyne receiver - Baseband transmission, line codes, matched filter, correlation, noise effect, Nyquist criterion, carrierless amplitude/Phase modulation - Passband transmission : linear modulations, spectral efficiency - Discrete time simulation of a communication chain - Time Multiplexing - Error correcting codes : block codes, convolutional codes, hard decoding, soft decoding
Other information Teaching and learning methods : Learning shall be based on theoretical courses interleaved with practical training (possibly MATLAB sessions) and laboratories Pre-requisite : FSAB 1106 Evaluation : Based on an examination possibly with course notes
