Degree Program: Undergraduate Level (Bachelor of Electrical Engineering with Honours)
Course Synopsis: This course introduces the students the basic principles of communication system. The fundamental concepts of analogue modulation in particular amplitude and frequency modulations will be strongly emphasized. Topics include types of modulated waveforms, transmitter and receiver structures, and noise performance. The two most significant limitations on the performance of a communications system bandwidth and noise will be discussed. The concept of sampling, quantization, and line coding techniques in rendering an information signal to be compatible with a digital system are explained prior to the study of coded pulse modulation and pulse code modulation (PCM). The waveforms and spectral analysis of bandpass digital modulations are introduced. The system performance in terms of SNR and bit error rate (BER) will also be covered. Finally, multiplexing (e.g., time-division and frequency-division multiplexing), a method to utilize the communication resource efficiently is studied. The course will utilize parts of the learning materials and/or feature invited speaker(s) from the Ericsson Educate initiative. At the end of the course student should be able to explain, evaluate and solve problems related to communication systems (modulation and multiplexing).
