(h) 15 15 Exam / Course Work/Test: T CW ECTS 2 Workload (h) 15 30 Knowledge of data processing in digital receivers with with elements of information theory and skills in designing digital receivers. The course consists of lectures and project tasks. The topic begins on the basics of informations theory including measure of information, entropy of source and communication channels capacity. Next, the memoryless modulation and coherent demodulation technique with evaluation of error probability function is discussed. Afterwards topics related to the optimum and sub-optimum receivers for a given channel, synchronization of unknown signal parameters are discussed with accent on practical issues Presented subjects are intended to be investigated in details by students in projects by building and observing computer simulation models 1.
