ELEC 673 Wireless Networks

3 semester hours

This course is an introduction to wireless networks. It is divided into three main parts: wireless communications, computer networking, and wireless networking. The focus is on wireless networking mainly, which covers cellular networks and wireless local area networks. Students will understand the fundamental theories of transmission, antennas, and propagation, be able to identify the sources of received-signal impairments in wireless communication systems, be able to design basic bit and packet error detection and correction techniques, understand the protocol stack in packet-switched networks, and be able to identify the appropriate protocol standards and corresponding wireless-network technologies according to given application scenarios.

Lecture, 3 hours.
