Content(s)
1. Introduction to digital transmissions
2.. Digital modulations on carrier frequency (representation of bandpass signals, spectral power density, Quadrature Amplitude Modulation, Phase Modulation, performance with ideal channel, _)
Second part :
1. Overview of the physical layer.
2. Channel modeling (additive white Gaussian noise, intersymbol interference, flat fading channels, multipath channels)
3. Synchronization techniques for non selective channel (carrier and timing)
4. Single carrier transmission (optimum receiver structure, equalization)
5. Advanced modulation schemes (OFDM, CDMA) and related receivers.
6. Trends: array processing (beamforming, MIMO, space-time coding), turbo receivers.
Prerequisites
Probability and statistics, error-correcting codes, random and deterministic signal processing, transmission systems.
