Name(s) of Lecturer(s):Özgür ÖZDEMİR EA-103 ( oozdemir@fatih.edu.tr )
Course Coordinator:Özgür ÖZDEMİR
Objectives of the Course:This course covers basics of probability, random variables and processes. Also, it covers techniques involved in the design of communications systems. The emphasis is on principles and the background necessary to fully understand the communications systems design rules.
Course Description:Introduction to probability theory. Random processes. Review of modulation techniques. AM and FM systems performance in presence of noise. Noise in digital communication systems. Optimal detection of signals and optimum receivers. Introduction to information theory. Error-correction codes.
Learning Outcomes:1. Analyze digital communication signals as vectors.
2. Understand the basics of PAM, QAM, PSK, FSK, and MSK.
3. Analyze probability of error performance of such systems.
4. Design digital communication systems based on these modulation techniques as block diagrams.
5. Understand and analyze sychronization systems.
6. Understand the basics of information theory and error correcting codes.
