Major in communication systems

The objectives of the telecommunications major are: Present the general organisation of communication networks and systems (wired or wireless) Present communications from the framework of information theory covering data compression (source-coding) and replication (channel coding) Present the different elements of modern modems, as well as systematic design methods for detection blocks and required estimates Offer a range of design tools for modems and systems Through this major, students will master important concepts about IP networks, GSM, UMTS and DSL access networks as well as new communications methods.
