Learning Outcomes of UE

CAN
Understand the status of the current telecommunication industry; To set qualitatively the role of each element in the global transmission chain; To identify the perturbators sources (channel, noises, distortions); to estimate and compare the different modulation (analogue and digital) and coding options in a concrete case;  to acquire a long lasting 'telecommunication spirit' and orders of magnitude.
RI
- 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.

UE Content: description and pedagogical relevance

Prior Experience

Not applicable

Type(s) and mode(s) of Q2 UE assessment

• Written examination - Face-to-face
• Production (written work, report, essay, collection, product, etc.) - To be submitted in class
• Oral examination - Face-to-face

Q2 UE Assessment Comments

- RI quotation: The evaluation procedure will be detailed in the first sessions of the AA. 
- CAN quotation:  Written exam (theory + exercises + laboratory technical content): 85%; Laboratories report: 15%.

Method of calculating the overall mark for the Q2 UE assessment

Final UE quotation : if the student has a quotation equal or under 7/20 for one of the AAs constituting  the UE, the final UE quotation will be equal to the lowest quotation obtained. Otherwise, the final UE quotation will be established proportionally to the AA's corresponding credits.

Type(s) and mode(s) of Q3 UE assessment

• Written examination - Face-to-face
• Oral examination - Face-to-face

Q3 UE Assessment Comments

-  RI quotation : The evaluation procedure will be detailed in the first sessions of the AA.
- CAN quotation : Written exam (theory + exercises + laboratories technical contents) : 100%. All previously acquired grades are not taken into account.

Method of calculating the overall mark for the Q3 UE assessment

Final UE quotation : if the student has a quotation equal or under 7/20 for one of the AAs constituting  the UE, the final UE quotation will be equal to the lowest quotation obtained. Otherwise, the final UE quotation will be established proportionally to the AA's corresponding credits.
