Content, progress and pedagogy of the module

Learning objectives

Knowledge

  • Digital communication of analog 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
  • Performance enhancing properties of multi antenna system or other technology, in a wireless communication system, with focus on the lower layers of the communication chain

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.
  • Evaluate the space and frequency dispersive behavior of the channel.
  • Must be able to evaluate and select among different multi antenna techniques for channel stabilization and capacity enhancement.

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
