IK2508 Trådlös transmissionsteknik 7,5 hp

• Performance of digitally modulated signals on fading multi-path channels.
• Synchronization in wireless communication.
• Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (OFDM). Principle and applications.
• Trellis Coded Modulation (TCM).
• Space-time trellis coded modulation.
• Advanced antenna systems for future wireless communication.
• Error control coding with feedback: ARQ and link adaptation in wireless communication.
• Spread spectrum transmission and wireless access methods (CDMA, FH, OFDMA).
• Interference modeling in wireless communication, joint detection and interference cancellation.
• Ultra-Wide-Band (UWB) impulse radio and its promise.

Upon completion of the course, the student should be able to: 

• Evaluate wireless link performance (bit error rate) in a structured way and evaluate tradeoffs.
• Perform system simulations (modulation/demodulation, channel coding/decoding, BER, and channel models). 
• Explain and evaluate methods for mitigating wireless channel impairments.
• describe different types of equalization methods and how they solve the problem of intersymbol-interference in wireless communication.
  distinguish the difference between forward error control coding and error control coding with feedback, and how they are used in wireless communications of today.
• Design trellis coded modulation for additive white Gaussian noise channels and fading channels. Identify the difference in design for the two channels.
• Explain the benefits of advanced antenna systems in wireless communication and how can they be used.
• Describe various advanced techniques (CDMA, multi-user detection, OFDM etc.) and their benefits in wireless communication systems.
• Describe the principle of ultra-wide-band and its difference to regular radio communication.

• Vid grupparbete har alla i gruppen ansvar för gruppens arbete.
• Vid examination ska varje student ärligt redovisa hjälp som erhållits och källor som använts.
• Vid muntlig examination ska varje student kunna redogöra för hela uppgiften och hela lösningen.
