EE 6760:Applied Communication Systems

3 Class Hours 0 Laboratory Hours 3 Credit Hours
Prerequisite: Admission to the MSAE program
The theory and principles of communication systems are presented in this course. Further, we delve on the communication system architecture as found in modern communication systems. Topics covered include AM and FM modulations, transmission and reception, noise and random processes, pulse modulation, digital transmission techniques and basic information theory concepts. Software simulations will emphasize the applied components using software platforms like MATLAB and SIMULINK. Graduate students will complete an independent research project which involves a written and oral presentation.
