Communications SystemsASU Course EEE455/591 Instructor: Joseph Hui Monarch Institute of Engineering
Textbook and Labs • Primary: Communications System Engineering, 2nd Edition • Author: John Proakis, Prentice Hall, 2001 • The textbook contains more details than necessary for undergrads. • Lecture notes • The PowerPoint files contain almost all information needed • A Word file for each lecture is posted from earlier years. • Prerequisite: • Linear system/Transform methods (EEE303) • Probability (EEE350) • Lab sessions: • Graduate students now have to take the lab • Undergraduate students always take the lab
Syllabus and Reading Material • Syllabus and topics covered: • This course is an introduction to basic communication techniques, including data sources, analog communications, digital communications, channel and source coding, and modern wireless communications. Examples of modern communication systems. • Goal of the course: • To understand the principles behind the design of communications systems, such as AM/FM radio, TV broadcasting, the digital telephone network, and cellular telephone networks of different generations. • Reading assignment for each lecture: • For today, read textbook sections 1.1 – 1.3 • Reading assignment stated in each PowerPoint • I’ll try to work out some examples in each class.
Course Grading • Two quizzes • 1st quiz held in class as indicated on course documents • 2nd quiz held in class as indicated on course documents • Each quiz covers half of the material • 1 page of formula sheet on two sides allowed • For EEE455, each quiz is 25% of grade • For EEE591, each quiz is 40% of grade • For EEE455, 6 labs for 25% of grade • 10 homework, roughly one every week • For EEE455, total 15% of grade • For EEE591, total 20% of grade • Same letter grade assignment scale for grad and undergrad: A+ 95-100 A 90-95 A- 88-90 B+ 85-88 B 80-85 B- 78-80 C+ 75-78 C 65-75 D 50-65 E < 50 (For undergraduate)

What is a Hertz, and in a Hertz? The concept of frequency spectrum • Signals in time can be decomposed into frequency components (Fourier transform) • A signal is called band limited if signal has frequency components within a frequency band. • Often signals are modulated to occupy different frequency bands in a large frequency spectrum • Signals can be transmitted in a wired system (copper wire, coaxial cable, fiber) • Signal can also be transmitted in a wireless system (microwave, satellite, cellular)
Information source and input transducer Transmitter Receiver Output traducer and information sink Channel Analog Communications What facilitates communications? • Information transmitted over distance. (Speech, video, data) • Information often is an analog waveform for analog communication.
Digital Communications What does it take to send data over a channel? • Time – More time, more bits transmitted • Frequency – More bandwidth, the faster you can transmit information • Space – The larger the transmitter and receiver, more bits transmitted • Power – The signal to noise ratio determines the number of bit per sample Fundamental equations government communication capacity: Nyquist Theorem: To reconstruct a signal band-limited to frequency f, we need only 2f samples per second. Shannon’s channel capacity: A channel of bandwidth W, transmitter power P, and noise power N0per hertz has capacity
