Content, progress and pedagogy of the
module
Learning objectives
Knowledge
The students must have insight in:
- Dynamic channels:
- Power vs protection margins
- Dynamic radio channel characterization
- Short term scattering descriptions for single and multiple
links
- Channel hardening/Diversity
- Item the interaction of multiple communication links which are
jointly considered to optimize system performance
- Advanced signal processing
- Channel characterization and processing algorithms to exploit
multi link radio propagation mechanisms of multiple antenna
systems, such as
- Space and time processing
- Spatial data multiplexing and space-time coding
- Time reversal techniques
Skills
The students must have understanding of:
- Establish a link budget with account for dynamic protection
margins for a given wireless communication system
- Evaluate properties of dynamic channels and apply stabilization
techniques
- Evaluate the impact on system performance, by joint treatment
of links in a multi-user/multi- network scenario – or other
interaction mechanisms.
- Apply processing methods for time and space exploitation of the
wireless radio channel.
Competences
The students must be able to
- Analyze, evaluate and model the PHY related signal impacts and
manipulation options - and its relevance to a wireless
communication system
