Course Description |
|
This course is designed to introduce
to the student the fundamentals of the theory of communications and
coding, in particular of digital communications. The course will
provide in-depth knowledge of communication fundamentals, which
include Digital
transmission of information across discrete and analog channels.
Sampling; quantization; noiseless source codes for data compression:
Huffman’s algorithm and entropy; block and convolutional channel
codes for error correction; channel capacity; digital modulation
methods: PSK, MSK, FSK, QAM; matched filter receivers. Performance
analysis: power, bandwidth, data rate and error probability.

Problem Sessions |
|
This course will require lots of
practice to understand the course material. As such, I will carry
one problem session outside class hours on a need basis. Attendance is optional but is highly encouraged.
