The student should aquire the following competences:
- Acquire the capacity to design, analyze and optimize signal processing algorithms that perform the main functions of a digital receiver (modulation, synchronization, channel estimation / equalization, detection, decoding).
- Acquire the capacity to design and analyze complex communication systems that combine several classes of signal processing algorithms.
- Acquire the capacity to design optimization problems, define their complexity, and obtain a solution using computing tools and signal processing algorithms.
At the end of the course the student will be able to:
- To handle with ease the mathematical and numerical tools necessary to design, analyze and optimize the elements of a communications system (modulation, synchronization, channel estimation / equalization, detection, coding / decoding).
- To understand, design, analyze and evaluate complex communication systems that combine several kinds of signal processing algorithms.
- To be able to solve practical problems in the design of communication systems using analytical methods and simulation.
