This course provides a more specialized understanding of the elemental technologies that make up wireless communication systems,
including source coding, error control, modulation and demodulation, access, radio propagation, antenna, fading-resistant,
and OFDM technologies. In the second half of the course, students will learn about trends in system technologies such as mobile
communication systems (PDC, W-CDMA, HSDPA, LTE, LTE-Advanced, 5G), wireless broadband (wireless LAN, WiMAX), and other wireless
communication systems from a technical perspective. Students will also deepen their understanding of wireless signal processing
through exercises.
The main objective of this course is to understand the important elemental technologies that constitute wireless communication
systems and to acquire knowledge of state-of-the-art wireless communication systems and services. The course also aims to
provide students with an understanding of wireless communication technologies and analysis methods through simulation exercises
using MATLAB.
- Understand and utilize specialized elemental technologies such as coding, decoding, modulation and demodulation in wireless communications.
- Understand and explain the practical details of applied technologies in wireless communications, such as multiple connections, antenna signal processing, and anti-fading technologies.
- Understand and explain the overview and characteristics of wireless communication systems and issues of system technology from a professional perspective.
