Revision as of 14:40, 5 March 2009

This is Derek Abbott's wiki project page for the Communications IV lectures. All information regarding this course can be found here.

Introduction

All the Comms IV materials and downloads are on this page. There are no rules. Anyone can edit this page and add questions and discussion. It is self-moderating and you can delete and edit anything you like. To resolve conflicts use the discussion page. I encourage you to use this as a forum to ask technical questions and even give answers if you know them. If you come across your own hints and tips that you think are useful to others, feel free to add them.

Schedule

For Semester 1, 2009, there will be three lectures per week:

  • Wednesday 3pm, Polygon Theatre (Level 3, Plaza Building)
  • Thursday 9am, EM213, (Level 2, Engineering Maths Building) - do not go to E218, LG18, or LG11!
  • Friday 2pm, S112, (Level 1, Engineering South Building)

We will meet during all three lecture slots and will have three lectures per week. The Thursday slot will sometimes be a tutorial.

This will be announced the week before. In total there will be 4 tutorials and 17 set lectures. We will probably go over the 17 lectures for revision and worked examples, if needed.

Course Notes

You must bring hard copies of the notes to every lecture and annotate the notes, based on my lecture in order to make the most of attendance. It is cheaper to buy the notes from EESAU, however if you miss out you can download them from here:

Tutorials

You must download these tutorials and attempt them 1-week before the tutorial to get the most out of it. Each tutorial date will be announced a week in advance.

  • Tutorial 1 Do after lecture at end of Section 2.
  • Tutorial 2 Do after lecture at end of Section 4.
  • Tutorial 3 Do after lecture at end of Slide 18 of Section 7.
  • Tutorial 4 Do after lecture at end of Section 9.

Assignment

There will be one Matlab based assignment that will count towards 10% of the course (the exam will count as 90%).

Exercises

There are exercises on the lecture slides at the end of each section. You are expected to do these promptly in your own time as a means of helping you to absorb the material. These are not assessed. The solutions are given below. It is upto you you whether you wish to peek before attempting them or not. Do whatever works best for your teaching yourself. Note that exercises begin at Section 2 and carry through to Section 9.

Formula Sheets

Familiarize yourselves with these as you get them as handouts in the exams:

The following formula sheet is designed for the whole BEng degree and is not given at exams. However it is very useful for solving problems for all courses in the degree for all 4 years. It is also useful if you carry on with a PhD.

Questions

If you found something confusing in a Comms IV lecture and thought it was a rather "muddy point" then on the list page, below, go ahead and ask a question. Anyone can answer: either myself or any other student can answer. I will of course tweek everyone's answers to make them clear and check they are correct.

Course Texts

The mandatory text is Proakis & Salehi. The recommeded extra reference is Ziemer & Tranter.
