Content
- Introduction to digital communication systems
- Random signals, modulations and detection
- Coherent and noncoherent demodulation
- Basics of Information theory
- Convolutional codes
- Adaptive modulation and coding
- Equalization (Linear and decision-feedback)
- Synchronization (time, frequency and phase)
Teaching methods
The cours is organized as follows
- 14 lectures
- 6-7 exercice sessions
- A project based on Matlab simulations, carried out in groups of 2 students. The project is supervised and takes the equivalent of 6-7 exercice sessions. The project starts around April and lasts until the last week of the semester.
Evaluation methods
The project is evaluated through a written report as well as a presentation by the students, followed by oral discussion on the results of the project.
The students are also evaluated individually with a written examination, based on the objectives described earlier. The examination is open-book and mostly based on exercices applying the different studied concepts.
