Synopsis
Students will gain an appreciation to the methods used to create communication systems across three broad areas of techniques and methods; systems and components; and real world applications. Students will study a wide range of relevant communication topics including phase locked loops, noise, modulation methods, electromagnetic propagation, antennas and optical fibre communication. The utility of these topics is illustrated by reference to existing communication systems such as telephone networks, TV/DTB, modern cellular mobile systems, microwave radio, radio navigation aids, and satellite communication systems.
