Objectives

After completion of the course, the students can apply the theoretical foundations of “Nachrichtentechnik” and “Nachrichtentechnik 2” in computer simulations. In addition, the students can characterize and compare communication systems on the basis of pre-defined performance indicators.

Description

The following components of a digital communication system are discussed: - Source coding (Huffman) - Channel coding (Repetition Codes) - Digital modulation schemes (ASK, PSK, QAM, DPSK) - Digital signal representation (sampling theorem) - Digital baseband transmission (pulse shaping, signal detection) - Passband transmission - Equalization for channels with inter symbol interference (Zero Forcing Equalizer, Wiener Filter)

Prerequisites

The following modules should be completed prior to participation: - Nachrichtentechnik - Stochastische Signale - Signaltheorie It is recommended to take part in the following module at the same time: - Nachrichtentechnik 2

Teaching and learning methods

- Introductory discussion of the topics - Work on the programming tasks in small groups of 2-3 students - Individual supervision by tutors and doctoral students - Individual work on short reports - Lecture Notes - Description of the programming assignments - Presentation slides - White board notes during the introductory and concluding discussion - Moodle

Examination

Exam at the end of each experiment.
