Aim:
The course provides basic knowledge about problems and methods for
construction of radio communication systems. The main emphasis is on
digital radio systems. In particular it is illustrated how different forms of signal processing are used for the construction of efficient radio communication systems.

Course contents:
Basics about radio communication systems: utilization of the frequency
spectrum, different radio systems.
Systemsoriented antenna and wave propagation theory: propagation in freespace, in the troposhere, in the ionoshere, basic antenna theory, link budget.
Probabilistic channel models: fading channels, time and frequencey
dispersive channels, digital channel models.
Modulation methods for the radio channel: bit error analysis in fading
channels, spectral properties, spectral efficient modulation.
Diversity methods: principles, weighting, performance.
Coding for radio channels: methods for burst error correction, coding gain.
Spread spectrum techniques: frequency hopping, direct sequence systems.
Multiple user systems: space- time-, frequency and code multiplex, dynamic channel allocation, packet switching.
Practical examples: mobile radio, high frequency transmission, satellite communication.
