Content, progress and pedagogy of the module

Learning objectives

Knowledge

• Digital communication of analogue or digital data over a stochastic fading channel.
• A basic wireless communication system and identify the individual blocks and their interaction. Thus, comprising the ends of the communication links, the transmission technique, the access technology as well as the fading channel
• Radio resources management in a multi-cell system, considering a space and requency dispersive channel
• Channel allocation principles and its application to planning of wireless communication systems

Skills

• Extract the specific operating conditions of selected system block(s) in context of the over all communication chain
• Compare and evaluate the individual stochastically varying links between two communicating entities.
• apply and assess stabilization methods to compensate for these variations – and their impact on the wireless communication system capacity. Such as
• Scheduling
• Link adaptation
• Channel allocation

Competences

• Analyze, evaluate and model a given wireless communication problem
• Communicate the project work in sound scientific and academic form
• Contribute successfully to team work within the problem area and make a common presentation of the project work
