Aim:
The course gives the student basic knowledge in radio electronics. The system perspective is addressed both in the context of traditional radio and today's wireless communication systems. The objectives of the course is that the student will learn operation principles of radio systems and their fundamental limitations. After the course the students should be able to:
- explain the principles of radio transmission and reception
- explain the existing physical and technical limitations of a radio system
- analyze the functionality of radio transmitters and receivers
- calculate basic radio specifications in terms of power, gain, noise and frequency for basic modulation schemes
- explain differences between traditional radio and todayâ?Ts digital radio systems
