Objectives of Programme's Learning Outcomes
Learning Outcomes of UE
- understand the status of the current telecommunication industry;
- set qualitatively the role of each element in the global transmission chain;
- identify the perturbators sources (channel, noises, distortions);
- estimate and compare the different modulation (analogue and digital) and coding options in a concrete case;
- quantify the point-to-point digital link efficiency for several reliable transfer mechanisms;
- acquire a long lasting 'telecommunication spirit' and orders of magnitude;
- identify the various components of a network;
- understand the role and operation of each element and evaluate their advantages and limitations;
- understand the advantage of the various tools available for the analysis of the networks performances.
