Aim:  To allow the students to get a general view of modern telecommunication systems and especially to train transmission considerations. These are models for transmission channels and evaluation of the signal processing in some basic systems which are used in communication nets of various art. Much emphasis is put into description of signals and noise as stochastic processes and in conversion of various continuous analogue signals to digital form.
Contents:  Introduction to telecommunication systems, services and organization. Deterministic signals. Application of stochastic processes in the description of signals and noise. Sampling and quantization of continuous stochastic signals. Examples of user signals. Linear estimation and prediction. Baseband transmission of digital signals: optimal receivers, signal design, and line codes. Models for physical transmission channels: metallic and optical transmission lines, radio channels, and storage media. Modulation techniques: amplitude modulation, quadrature modulation, digital phase modulation, and OFDM. Digital networks: component and multiplexing systems. Simple protocols for information exchange.
