<ul>
	<li>Information theoretic foundation of electrical communication</li>
	<li>Baseband and bandpass digital communication</li>
	<li>Performance of digital communication chains</li>
	<li>Detection theory and intersymbol interference (ISI) mitigation</li>
	<li>Error control coding in digital communication systems</li>
	<li>Synchronisation basics</li>
</ul>

This course focuses on the core digital information transmission and signal processing techniques utilised in all widely-used communications systems and networks, like 2G/3G/4G/5G mobile communication networks, wireless LANs, digital TV broadcasting, and DSL. These techniques include error control coding, digital modulation, filtering, channel equalisation and detection.

After completing the course, the student

<ul>
	<li>Can explain the information theoretic foundations of digital communications.</li>
	<li>Can recognise and explain the main elements of digital communication systems and the common digital modulation methods in waveform domain.</li>
	<li>Is able to analyse the transmission link level performance of digital communication systems.</li>
	<li>Recognises and is able to explain the main functions of digital communications transmitters and receivers.</li>
	<li>Can explain the significance and principles of error control coding in digital communication systems. 
	&nbsp;</li>
</ul>

Very basics of communications engineering

For all those who want to understand how digital modulation methods and error control codes work, and what are the corresponding fundamental transmitter and receiver signal processing stages.
