Electrical and Computer Engineering EE521 Analog and Digital Communications

This graduate ECE course covers digital data communication including modulation, coding, decoding, and spread spectrum techniques. Students will study topics like digital phase coding, linear block codes, convolutional encoding, and modulation/coding tradeoffs through lectures, labs, a term project, and exams. The grade will be based on exams, an individually assigned project, a final exam, attendance, and occasional quizzes.

This spring graduate ECE course considers digital data


communication with noise, modulation including digital phase
coding, codes including linear, block, cyclic, convolutional,
and decoding including TDMA, and spread spectrum and
CDMA.

The lecture material will be supplemented by coordinated


laboratory assignments and an individually assigned Term
Project in computer simulations using SystemView by Elanix
(http://www.elanix.com ), included with the text. The grade
for EE320 will consist of the following:
• Two Exams, 40%
• Individually Assigned Project, 40%
• Final Exam 20%
• Attendance – deductions for absences
• Occasional unannounced 10-minute quizzes – deductions for missing or
incorrect responses

Appointments: The preferred, professional manner to schedule an appointment to


discuss the material of this course and for questions or concerns is via email.

Accommodation: Any student who has a need for accommodation based on the
impact 9of a disability should contact me privately to discuss the specific situation as
soon as possible. The student should also contact Disability Resources and Services at
(215) 204-1280, located at 100 Ritter Annex, to coordinate reasonable accommodations
for students with documented disabilities.

Attendance and Participation: Attendance at the lectures of this course is considered


as participation and is mandatory. Each unexcused absence will result in a 0.5%
reduction of the final grade.

Unannounced Quizzes: Students should be prepared throughout the course by


diligently performing the problem assignments, even though they are not collected or
graded per se. Unannounced 10 minute quizzes will be given on material from
completed problem assignments in lieu of attendance checks. Absence or unfamiliarity
with the material apparent in the quiz answer will result in a 1% reduction in the final
grade.
Course Objectives and Outcomes: The objectives and outcomes for all courses in
ECE are maintained as part of the ABET accreditation criteria.

TUARC: ECE students interested in digital data communications should visit the
Temple University Amateur Radio Club K3TUwebsites at
http://www.temple.edu/ece/tuarc.htm
and
http://www.temple.edu/k3tu
for an interesting technical diversion.
