University of Rhode IslandUniversity of Rhode IslandELE 436 Communication Systems |
|
|
|
| Topics Covered: Communication theory is
the study of the representation, transmission and reception of information (e.g.
speech, music, text, images etc.) using electrical/acoustic signals and systems.
Specifically we will be concerned with two types of problems in this course: 1) how to
code and transmit information across a communication channel (cable, wires, space,
waveguide etc.) and 2) how to analyze and reduce the interference and noise that distort
the transmitted signals. We will use Fourier transform methods (learned in ELE 313/314)
and ideas from probability theory to understand various communication systems. By the end
of the course, the student should have an understanding of analog (AM and FM),
analog-pulse (PAM) and digital (PCM/FSK/ASK) modulation methods. |
