Course overview
Starting from the concept of a signal, we cover the fundamentals of how signals are acquired, processed and transmitted over a wide range of media — electronic, optical and radio. Our laboratory work shows how these principles are put into practice and your software development skills are improved through a series of lectures, exercises and assignments.
Building on this, we explore a number of state-of-the-art topics in detail, including:
- Modern digital transmission systems
- Wireless communication systems
- Computer security and cryptography
- Complex electronic circuits
- Networked systems
Our graduates work in major telecommunications companies around the world. We have run this course for over 25 years and, in that time, educated over a thousand communications specialists.
