This course aims to teach physical characteristics of wireless medium and several technologies that are specifically designed for transmission over wireless media. Specifically, the students will identify path loss, shadow fading, multi-path fading and diversity. Different wireless channel models will be introduced and their capacity will be analyzed. Students will have the knowledge of modern wireless technologies, such as multi-carrier modulation and OFDM, spread spectrum and CDMA, and multiple antenna systems. |
