ELE 435 Communication Systems

Instructor: Dr Kumaresan
email: kumar@ele.uri.edu

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.
