EESC5350 - Signals, Systems, and Digital Communications

EESC 5350 Signals, Systems, and Digital Communications (3 semester credit hours) Advanced methods of analysis of electrical networks and linear systems. Laplace transforms, Fourier series, and Fourier transforms. Response of linear systems to step, impulse, and sinusoidal inputs. Convolution, system functions, and frequency response. Z transforms and digital systems. Fundamentals of digital communication systems such as information, digital transmission, channel capacity, modulation and demodulation techniques are introduced. Signaling schemes and performance of binary as well as M-ary modulated digital communication systems are introduced. Overall design considerations and performance evaluation of various digital communication systems are discussed. Prerequisite: ENGR 3300 or equivalent. (3-0) R
