| Aims |
With respect to the AA referring system defined for the Master in Electrical Engineering, the course contributes to the develoopment, mastery and assessment of the following skills :
Axis 1 (1.1, 1.2, 1.3), Axis 2 (2.1, 2.2, 2.4), Axis 3 (3.1), Axis 4 (4.1, 4.2, 4.4), Axis 5 (5.2, 5.3, 5.6), Axis 6 (6.1, 6.3)
b. At the end of the course, the student will be able to :
-
Define concepts enabling to fully characterize radio channels (narrow- and wideband, as well multi-antenna channels)
-
Explain through analytical models and Matlab simulations the impact of the propagation channel and co-channel interference on system performance
-
Describe and compare various multiple access techniques (TDMA/FDMA/CDMA)
-
Explain, via mathematical representations, and analyze receive techniques (Rake receiver, joint detection, OFDM, SIMO/MISO/MIMO)
-
Describe the radio interface of wireless communication standards (GSM, UMTS, IS95/UTRA, 3G-LTE), together with the underlying concepts
-
Present (written report and oral presentation) the results achieved within a group project, consisting in the Matlab implementation of a wireless system in a real-world channel
|
| Evaluation methods |
Regarding the course, the oral evaluation is individual (no book/notes allowed) and based on clearly announced objectives (see above).
Regarding the project, the evaluation relies on a written group report and an oral group presentation.
